The US Federal Bureau of Investigation recently raided the home of President Joseph Biden. Subsequently, it became known that law enforcement officers seized not only certain secret documents, but also the personal notebooks of the American leader.
Back on January 12, Biden said that in the fall, one of his houses in the state of Delaware was visited by representatives of law enforcement agencies. They seized secret papers in the president's garage and in one of his private rooms.
The notebooks contained information that is important for the state
As noted Media, in addition to official documents, law enforcement officers also confiscated personal diaries. However, they had important information.
The notebooks were seized because Biden's notes on some pages relate to his official activities as vice president during the Obama presidency. In particular, we are talking about the details of his diplomatic obligations, which may relate to classified information, NBC News wrote, citing its own sources.
At the same time, they noted that these notebooks are not labeled “secret “, however, certain notes can still be considered secret. Actually, because of their content.
Pay attention! According to the law, Biden had no right to keep secret papers in his private home, because they are the property of the state and are of great importance to the United States. Personal notebooks, if they had classified information about government affairs, also, by United States law, belong to the state and should be kept in the archives.
