Special counsel Robert Mueller is investigating events that took place during the Republican National Convention in 2016, Reuters reported Thursday.
Mueller is looking at an event attended by both then-Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) and former Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
He is also looking into how language critical of Russia was removed from a section of the GOP platform on Ukraine.

Sessions acted as an adviser and surrogate for the campaign.
