White House defends tentative information on Biden documents Confrontation between London and Edinburgh over gender escalates

The White House has defended its reluctance to release information about classified documents found in US President Joe Biden’s private quarters. Due to investigations by the Justice Department, information can only be made public to a limited extent, a spokesperson said in Washington on Tuesday. It is normal for new information to gradually emerge during an investigation.

The White House has been criticized for its information policies. Only over the weekend did it become known that more documents had been discovered in Biden’s private home in the US state of Delaware. Documents had previously been found there and in Biden’s private quarters in the capital Washington. The White House only admitted this after media reports.

The documents date from Biden’s time as Vice President under Barack Obama from 2009 to 2017. The White House has repeatedly emphasized that Biden’s lawyers immediately turned the documents over to the National Archives, which is responsible for safekeeping. Attorney General Merrick Garland, appointed by Biden, last week hired a special investigator to investigate the incident. (sda/dpa)
