US President Joe Biden is looking for ways to put his hands on the questions he would be subjected to by the Special Counsel investigating the classified documents found in his position, NBC reported on Friday citing sources.

The documents were found distributed in several locations; in his private office, Delaware home, and personal garage between November 2022 and January this year, dating back to his time as Vice President under former President Barack Obama.

Biden's legal team has been negotiating with the council's chief Robert Hur for months to have prior access to the questions and whether the probe's scope would include the period before he assumed his VP role, the broadcaster said.

After the files were discovered during an FBI raid, the US President at first expressed his "surprise" that they were located in his office, but later on, declared that he had "no regrets" for his actions.

The US government publicly acknowledged it undertook an investigation into Biden's mishandling of classified materials, appointing Hur to look into the matter.

Biden was described as a hypocrite by the Republicans, as he earlier bashed former US President Donald Trump for storing classified documents at his Mar-a-Lago home in Florida.
