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."

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 is 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.
