President Trump said he returned from Helsinki on Monday and "realized there is some need for clarification" about his remarks on Russian interference in the 2016 election.

"In a key sentence in my remarks I said the word would instead of wouldn’t," Trump said. He explained he reviewed a transcript and video of his remarks.

"The sentence should have been: 'I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t be Russia,'" he said. "Sort of a double negative."

"I think that probably clarifies things pretty good on itself," Trump said.

On Monday, Trump said during his press conference "I don't see any reason why it would be" Russia who interfered in the election.
