US President Donald Trump on Monday asserted that the release of special counsel Robert Mueller's report would not bother him at all and the decision to make the report public lies with the Justice Department.
The report by Mueller, a former FBI director, is a nearly two-year investigation into the allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 US presidential elections.
Trump on Sunday claimed victory after a summary of the report, submitted to the Congress, found no conspiracy "despite multiple offers from Russian-affiliated individuals to assist the Trump campaign".
Opposition Democratic party, which has been alleging that Russian interference helped Trump win his presidency, are demanding that the report be made public.
"It wouldn't bother me at all," Trump told reporters at the White House when asked if he wanted the complete report to be released.
He said it is up to Attorney General William Barr to decide whether to release the full report.
Trump says he is glad that Mueller's investigation into Russian meddling is over and wishes it could have gone quicker. "We can never let this happen to another president again," he said.
Earlier, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders also said the President would have no problem with the release of the Mueller report
