Mueller to accept some written answers from Trump: NYT
By Emily Birnbaum - 09/04/18 06:29 PM EDT
Special counsel Robert Mueller has reportedly agreed to accept some written answers from President Trump regarding whether Trump's 2016 campaign worked with Russia amid Russia's election interference.
The New York Times reports that Mueller sent a letter to Trump's legal team late last week saying he would accept some of Trump's responses in writing.
However, on the question of whether the president tried to obstruct the probe itself, Mueller's team acknowledged that executive privilege issues could put a wrinkle in their push for an interview with Trump and didn't ask for written responses on that matter, the Times reported.
Both sides are still negotiating over whether the president will sit down for an interview with the special counsel.
