Former US President Donald Trump said he has been indicted on charges of mishandling classified documents at his Florida estate
.
The indictment arises from a months-long investigation by special counsel Jack Smith into whether Mr Trump broke the law by holding onto hundreds of documents marked as classified at his Palm Beach property Mar-a-Lago and whether he took steps to obstruct the government’s efforts to recover the records.
Mr Trump and his team have long seen the special counsel investigation as far more perilous than the New York matter — both politically and legally. It remains unclear what the immediate and long-term political consequences will be for Mr Trump.
