He is scheduled to make a statement on his investigation at the top of the next hour. His first Public Comments on the probe since he started as Special Counsel more than two years ago.

our washington bureau. Ken, this is someone throughout the investigation did a remarkable job of keeping things under wrap and stopping any leaks from coming out. We have not seen him. He is so
Have constant exchanges with President Trump. I share his goals, sometimes we say we dont agree on methods. But i want to get there. I want to have an agreement. And i think theres been a true change. This morning president rouhani showed himself to be open to this meeting happening and President Trump has been saying for weeks that hes been demanding, hes been tough, hes put sanctions, but im ready to have a meeting to make a deal. I think were making progress. I want this meeting to happen and i want there to be an agreement between the United States and iran and france will play the role together with United Kingdom and germany and all the other Signatory Powers and the permanent members of the security council. Iran is a country that is not the same country that it was two and a half years ago when i came into office. Iran was the number one state of terror throughout the world.
