WASHINGTON, Jan. 24 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump said Wednesday that he is willing to talk to special counsel Robert Mueller as part of the ongoing Russia probe.

"I'm looking forward to it," Trump told reporters at the White House when asked if he was going to talk to Mueller. "I would do it under oath," he said.

Mueller is investigating allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election and possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Moscow.

The special counsel's team is also reportedly looking into any attempts by Trump to obstruct the investigation.

"There has been no collusion whatsoever," Trump said as he repeatedly did, adding "there's no obstruction whatsoever."

The president also said that he expected his interview with Mueller to happen in two or three weeks, and that whether he would show up was subject to his lawyers' advice. "But I'd love to do it," he said.

Trump's remarks came after the Justice Department confirmed Tuesday that Attorney General Jeff Sessions was interviewed for several hours last week by the special counsel's office.

The Sessions-Mueller interview was the first time that the Mueller team is known to have questioned a Trump cabinet member.

Trump said Tuesday that he had not talked to Sessions about what the latter discussed with Mueller's investigators. "I'm not at all concerned," he said.
