Washington Post: Documents with classified information about China and Iran were in Trump’s mansion

Very sensitive information involved Iran and China were included in some documents found by the FBI in August in its search of the former president’s residence Donald Trump in Florida, claims the Washington Post newspaper today.

Citing imgs close to the investigation, the newspaper said the seized documents included classified documents related to intelligence-gathering work for China, and at least one of them described Iran’s missile program. These documents are considered to be among the most “sensitive” found by the FBI.

Releasing the information contained in them would involve many risks. Among other things, the persons who helped the efforts of the American secret services could be at risk and those efforts could be compromised, according to the experts who spoke to the newspaper.

The Justice Department is investigating whether Trump broke the law by taking government records, including about 100 classified documents, with him when he left the White House in January 2021. It is also looking into whether Trump or members of his team obstructed justice when the FBI sent agents to search his Mar-a-Lago home. The ministry also warned that other documents may be missing.
