US President Donald Trump's lawyers asked him to refuse questioning by the special prosecutor, Robert Mueller, in charge of investigating the allegations raised about a secret American-Russian agreement during the 2016 election campaign, reported”News York Times”
For several weeks, close US President and several Republican deputies question the credibility and impartiality of the investigation by Robert Mueller, who has charged several Trump associates, among them General Michael Flynn, who had the post of adviser for national security.
” The York Times” quoted four people who reported the lawyer's concern, as having doubts that Donald Trump may be accused of lying to investigators.
According to the paper, these sources confirm that lawyer John Dowd, his deputy Jay Sequilow, the longtime lawyer of the current president, Marc Kasowitz, and a considerable number of advisers have come up against questioning, with the argument that Robert Mueller is not qualified to ask the president about certain issues.
