TEXT: Read Special Counsel Mueller's full statement, as prepared for delivery.
, discussing his 448-page report on his investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and President Donald Trump.Two years ago, the Acting Attorney General asked me to serve as Special Counsel, and he created the Special Counsel's Office.
Let me begin where the appointment order begins: and that is interference in the 2016 presidential election. The indictments allege, and the other activities in our report describe, efforts to interfere in our political system. They needed to be investigated and understood. That is among the reasons why the Department of Justice established our office.
And in the second volume, the report describes the results and analysis of our obstruction of justice investigation involving the President. It explains that under long-standing Department policy, a President cannot be charged with a federal crime while he is in office. That is unconstitutional. Even if the charge is kept under seal and hidden from public view—that too is prohibited.
And second, the opinion says that the Constitution requires a process other than the criminal justice system to formally accuse a sitting President of wrongdoing. The Attorney General then concluded that it was appropriate to provide our report to Congress and the American people.
