Asked about "This Week" about ABC's chances of cooperation with Mueller, Mr. Stone said his lawyers should discuss the subject, while saying that he would honestly testify about wrongdoing.

"There are wrongdoing in the campaign I'm aware of – which I do not know anyone – but if there are any, I will certainly testify honestly," Stone said. "I would also like to honestly testify on any other matter, including any communication with the President, it is true that we have spoken on the telephone, but these communications are of a political nature."

Stone was indicted Thursday by a federal grand jury in Washington on seven counts and was arrested Friday morning in Florida. Mueller baderted in the indictment that Stone had searched for stolen emails from WikiLeaks in coordination with the Trump campaigners.
Pierre said Friday afternoon that he would plead not guilty and would "not bear false testimony against the president".

When asked if he cooperated with the special counsel, Mr. Stone replied, "I do not want to answer that question, but I said I would not be testifying against the president, because I should be wearing a fake testimony against him. "

In his interview Sunday, Stone echoed Trump's remarks in his attack on the special council's investigation and denied any "conspiracy with Russia".

Stone also said that Trump had never suggested forgiving him.

"I have never discussed a pardon," Stone said. "The only person for whom I asked for forgiveness, as we discussed earlier, is a posthumous pardon for Marcus Garvey."
