Interview with investigators unlikely as there was no meeting with Russia, Trump says

Controversial US President Donald Trump has waved aside a possible interview session with Robert Mueller’s team of investigators who are looking into possible ties between the Trump presidential campaign and Russia.

The US President said it is “unlikely” he will be interviewed by Mueller and his team while also noting that there was no collusion, Mr Trump said, adding: “I’ll see what happens.”

In June 2017, Mr Trump said he would “100%” be interviewed under oath.
