US President Donald Trump has called the alleged involvement of Russians in the country’s 2016 presidential election a total fabrication.

Trump added that the prosecutors should rather look into the deleted emails of former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. He said he hoped the outcome of the Russia investigation would be honest. The remarks come after a jury impaneled by US Special Counsel Robert Mueller, issued subpoenas in connection with a meeting involving the president’s son Donald Trump Junior, his son-in-law Jared Kushner and a Russian lawyer back in June 2016. Trump has slammed the investigation as a fake story. Meanwhile, a number of US senators have introduced two bipartisan bills aimed at protecting Mueller from being fired by the president.
