US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that current President Donald Trump can pardon himself, but not for crimes that affect US legislation.
Pelosi explained in an interview with “CBC” channel that “Trump can pardon himself in federal crimes, but this is not possible according to US legislation, so the investigation is being carried out against him in New York State.”
Since last Wednesday, after Trump supporters stormed the US Congress, during the approval session for the results of the presidential elections, which was won by Democrat Joe Biden, the outgoing US president has been facing pressure and moves to question him and remove him days before the date of handing over power.
The Trump supporters stormed the Congress building, causing deaths and injuries.
