Former US National Security Adviser John Bolton is reportedly preparing to settle a long-running case involving the alleged retention of sensitive government documents. According to reports, Bolton could pay a $2 million fine as part of an agreement with authorities. Officials have argued that more than 1,000 pages of classified or sensitive information were improperly retained. The case has drawn attention because of Bolton's senior role in national security and the broader debate over handling confidential government records.
