President Trump’s legal team is standing by its prediction that a central part of the probe into Russia’s election meddling will conclude quickly.
Trump lawyer Jay Sekulow reasserted in an interview Monday with The Wall Street Journal that the parts of special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe involving Trump would end soon, though he did not mention specific dates.
“I know we, collectively, the lawyers, are looking forward to an expeditious wrapping up of this matter,” Sekulow told the Journal.
A spokesman for Mueller’s team declined to comment for the newspaper’s report.
Experts have said it is unlikely that the special counsel’s probe will wrap up anytime soon, given the scope of the investigation that has reached into the upper echelons of the White House.
