UN Envoy: John Bolton May Face Trial
The U.S. Vice President, J.D. Vance, stated that if the charges against former national security advisor John Bolton are proven, he could face trial.
He added that the Federal Bureau of investigation intends to review Bolton’s case thoroughly. “If there is no crime, we will not pursue criminal charges,” Vance said. “Though, if a crime has been committed, Bolton will receive what he deserves in court.”
Vance emphasized that Bolton is not in custody and will not be detained unless formal criminal charges are filed against him.
A few days ago, the FBI announced a raid on john Bolton’s residence in the Washington suburb where he lives during Donald Trump’s first presidential term as national security advisor.
The FBI director confirmed the raid on Bolton’s home near Washington and stressed that “no one is above the law.”
The New york Post was the first outlet to report this operation. According to their report, at 7 a.m., FBI agents began searching Bolton’s Bethesda home under orders from Director Christopher Wray as part of an ongoing investigation.
The Associated Press quoted informed sources saying that the FBI conducted this search within an investigation into how John Bolton handled classified documents.
Bolton served as U.S. Ambassador to the United nations and White House National Security Advisor during Trump’s first term but has since become a vocal critic of the Republican president,accusing him of poor leadership.
