We're also saying that the investigation is critically important, that there is a cloud over the United Nations, there's no doubt about it, that the only way to dispel the cloud is to let the sunlight in, and that means a thorough investigation.

In May, an unexpected political possibility was sort of thrust my way, and at that time it was clear to me that if there was any chance of that coming to pass, it would mean I would have to step down as special counsel and I did not want to step down as special counsel without taking responsibility for the work product,
