WASHINGTON, Dec. 17 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump said on Sunday that he is not considering firing special counsel Robert Mueller.
Mueller is investigating allegations of Russian interference in the last year's U.S. presidential election and collusion between the Trump campaign and Moscow.
When asked if he was considering dismissing Mueller, Trump responded, "No, I'm not," and did not elaborate on the issue.
The president, however, criticized the fact that Mueller's team had gained access to tens of thousands of emails sent and received by officials from Trump's transition team before the start of the presidency.
Trump said it was "not looking good."
