The prosecutor of Russiagate clarified that in his investigation, he had not acquitted Donald Trump

Robert Mueller, the special prosecutor who investigated the Russian conspiracy in the US presidential elections, said Wednesday in Congress that his investigations did not exonerate President Donald Trump, but also said that He will not say if the president has committed a crime.

During a stressful audition, Mueller responded several times with one word and sent the lawmakers several times to report.

When one of the lawmakers asked him if, according to the investigation, the Russian government realized that the victory of one of the candidates in the elections would have a beneficial effect, Mr. Mueller has answered "yes". Which candidate? We asked him. "It would be Trump"replied the researcher.

"The president has not been exonerated from the acts with which he is accused," Mueller told the House's Committee on Legal Affairs.

Trump insisted this week on the fact that he would not watch the televised testimony nationally, but half an hour before the start, he launched a raging campaign on Twitter, complaining notably of the fact that Mueller testified with an badistant sitting next to him. "This has NOT been expressly agreed upon, and I would have never accepted it." The best witch hunt in the history of the United States by far! ", Wrote Trump in a half Tweets tweets.

The encrypted legal information used in Mueller's report allowed the president and his allies to declare that the investigation was a "witch hunt" whose political motives had not revealed anything of importance. "THERE IS NO COLLUSION, OBSTRUCTION!", Tweeted Trump on Tuesday.

However, the Democrats are waiting for Mueller to explain why he did not file a complaint despite the sentence described in the 448-page report. "All Americans deserve to know about the crimes and corruption outlined in the Mueller report," said Democratic MP Ted Lieu.

What is the Mueller report?

Mueller's report documents the many contacts between Trump's campaign and the Russians, including attempts at cooperation or conspiracy, which in no way constitute a specific crime.

Mueller finally decided that there was not enough evidence to recommend charges of criminal conspiracy, the main legal charge that he could use.

The veteran prosecutor also detailed 10 cases in which Trump reportedly attempted to obstruct the investigation, but said he could not recommend a suit against the president because of the rules of the Department of Justice (the Department of Justice ) preventing it from proceeding to criminal prosecution. Against an acting president.

This left it to Congress to determine whether Trump had committed a crime and a minority of Democrats lobbied for the House of Representatives to begin a process of removing the President.
