The State Department <\/a>Thursday followed the White House\u2019s lead by dodging questions about the discovery of classified documents at one of President Biden\u2019s former offices in Washington and in his personal garage.<\/p>\n

Some of the documents were found at the Penn Biden Center in Washington, D.C., where Biden had an office before he ran for president. Biden\u2019s Secretary of State<\/a>, Antony Blinken, was a managing director of that office. On Thursday, Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed a special counsel to investigate how the documents were handled.<\/p>\n

Thursday afternoon, reporters asked several questions about whether the Justice Department is looking into any possible connection between Blinken and the documents.<\/p>\n

But State Department spokesman Ned Price dodged the questions, including those about whether the Justice Department has contacted the State Department as part of its investigation.<\/p>\n

AG GARLAND APPOINTS SPECIAL COUNSEL TO INVESTIGATE BIDEN CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“There\u2019s not going to be much that I can say on a case like this for reasons that you well understand. You heard the president speak to this earlier in the week from Mexico City,” Price said. “Just as you heard from the president, the secretary [Blinken] was surprised to learn that there were any government records taken to that office. As you know, as is now well known, there is a review of this matter, so we\u2019re going to let that review play out.”<\/p>\n

When asked when Blinken first learned that classified documents were being kept at the Penn Biden Center<\/a>, Price dodged again.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m just not going to offer any additional detail,” he said. “Just as the president was, [Blinken] was surprised to learn that there were any government records taken to that location. Had no knowledge of it at the time. But I\u2019m just not going to offer any additional detail.<\/p>\n

ROBERT K. HUR, BIDEN SPECIAL COUNSEL, OVERSAW INDICTMENTS OF TOP BALTIMORE OFFICIALS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

“This matter is under review, so we\u2019re going to let that review proceed as it should,” he added.<\/p>\n

When asked if any of the classified documents might have come from the State Department, Price said he didn\u2019t know.<\/p>\n

“Of course, that would not be anything I would know,” he said. “It is not anything the secretary would know. As we\u2019ve heard from the White House<\/a>, it is not something that the president knows. This is a matter that\u2019s being investigated, being looked at by the Department of Justice. We\u2019re going to let that proceed.”<\/p>\n

PRESIDENT BIDEN IGNORES QUESTION ON WHY CLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS WERE FOUND AT HIS THINK TANK<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

He said if any connection is made, the Justice Department would likely coordinate with the State Department.<\/p>\n

“If there is a need for the Department of Justice to speak to the Department of State on an investigative matter, there are channels and procedures for them to do that,” Price said. “They\u2019re not channels or procedures that would involve me, they\u2019re not channels or procedures that would involve most people in this building.”<\/p>\n

“If there is a need, there would be, as you would expect, full cooperation,” he added. “But, again, we\u2019re going to let this review play out.”<\/p>\n

When asked if anyone from the Justice Department has interviewed anyone from the State Department on the matter, Price declined to comment.<\/p>\n

“I\u2019m just not going to comment on this,” he said. “This is a matter that is being pursued by the Department of Justice<\/a>, and we\u2019ll let them pursue it.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
