FBI director James Comey is set to officially reveal if the bureau is investigating Donald Trump and his administration's ties to Russia during the presidential election.

Since Trump's inauguration in late January, Congress intelligence committees, in both the House and Senate, have announced investigations into Trump's link to Russia.

The FBI has continually skirted around the question if the bureau was also looking into the matter, but the matter will be made public after Comey speaks with two senators on Wednesday.

FBI director James Comey is set to officially make public on Wednesday if the bureau is investigating Donald Trump and his administration's ties to Russia during the presidential election, it was revealed on Tuesday

According to CNN, the FBI director told senators Sheldon Whitehouse and Lindsey Graham he would answer the question, when they spoke in a private meeting.

Graham also asked Comey for evidence in regards to Trump's claims that Obama had wiretapped his phones during the election, reported the news outlet.

The South Carolina senator continued that if he didn't receive an answer by Wednesday, he would make the judicial hearing very difficult for Comey.

Both of the senators had sent a letter to Comey and the deputy attorney general on March 8, asking for evidence of Trump's claims.

An excerpt of the request said: 'We request that the Department of Justice provide us copies of any warrant applications and court orders — redacted as necessary to protect intelligence sources and methods that may be compromised by disclosure, and to protect any ongoing investigations — related to wiretaps of President Trump, the Trump Campaign, or Trump Tower.'

'We would take any abuse of wiretapping authorities for political purposes very seriously. We would be equally alarmed to learn that a court found enough evidence of criminal activity or contact with a foreign power to legally authorize a wiretap of President Trump, the Trump Campaign, or Trump Tower.

Graham previously said in an interview with CNN: 'All I can say is that the country needs an answer to this. The current President has accused the former President of basically wiretapping his campaign.'
