Published Thu, 20 Feb 2025 16:10:28 GMT

(CNN) — Un informe largamente esperado por el fiscal especial designado por el republicano John Durham no pudo encontrar el “crimen del siglo” que el expresidente Donald Trump dijo que lo apuntaba en el centro de la investigación de Rusia. Pero, no obstante, le entregó un potencial rédito político.La conclusión de 300 páginas a una investigación de tres años también asestó otro golpe a la Oficina Federal de Investigación por su manejo de las elecciones de 2016, que destrozaron su reputación. Durham dijo que la investigación a gran escala de la oficina sobre los múltiples vínculos entre la campaña de Trump y los rusos nunca debería haberse puesto en marcha, argumentando que los investigadores “descartaron o ignoraron voluntariamente” la información que no apoyaba las teorías preliminares de que hubo connivencia entre Trump y Rusia. Y pidió al Departamento de Justicia que nombrara a un funcionario para supervisar las pruebas políticamente sensibles.El fis...
