• Joe Biden quizzed by special counsel in probe of secret docs.
• Special Counsel Robert Hur is leading the investigation.
• Ian Sams has affirmed the administration’s commitment.

President Joe Biden voluntarily participated in an interview as part of an ongoing inquiry into the handling of classified documents.

Special Counsel Robert Hur is leading the investigation, which aims to understand the circumstances surrounding the discovery of classified documents in Biden’s former private office and residence.

The White House has confirmed the interview and stressed its dedication to cooperation and transparency throughout the investigation.

Biden’s interview spanned two days, concluding on Monday. Ian Sams, a spokesperson for the White House counsel’s office, has affirmed the administration’s commitment to providing relevant updates while safeguarding the investigation’s integrity.

This investigation stems from concerns related to classified documents dating back to Biden’s time as vice president under President Barack Obama.

The controversy initially arose when classified documents were found in a private think tank office in Washington in November 2022.

Subsequently, additional documents were discovered in Biden’s garage in Wilmington, Delaware, on December 20, and in his home library on January 12.

The investigation has drawn parallels with a separate case involving former President Donald Trump, who faces trial over allegations of mishandling classified documents after leaving office.

Special Counsel Jack Smith has accused Trump of relocating classified documents to his Mar-A-Lago estate in Florida and refusing to return them.

Trump has pleaded not guilty to charges of unlawfully retaining national defense information, conspiracy to obstruct justice, and making false statements, with his trial expected in 2024.

The Biden administration is dealing with multiple legal challenges, with Republicans drawing comparisons between the Trump and Biden document cases.

Furthermore, Hunter Biden, the president’s son, is the subject of another special counsel investigation related to tax fraud and gun possession.

These ongoing investigations underscore the significance of preserving the integrity of classified information and the legal scrutiny that follows when such matters are called into question.

Biden’s cooperation with Special Counsel Robert Hur’s investigation reflects a commitment to transparency and accountability at the highest levels of government.
