Rudy Giuliani said Monday afternoon he’s not trying to get Jeff Sessions’ job — and that the attorney general made the right decision to recuse himself from the Russia investigation.

“I thought it was the correct decision under the Justice Department regulations,” the former mayor told The Post. “I thought he consulted with the ethics counsel and he made the right decision. I have told the president that.”

Giuliani’s comments contradict a report Monday morning claiming President Trump is considering dumping Sessions and replacing him with the former Big Apple mayor — and depart from Trump’s own condemnation of Sessions’ recusal.

Giuliani said Trump has never raised the possibility with him of taking over for Sessions and, in any case, he’s not interested in the gig.

“I’m so busy with my private law practice and security business, it would impossible for me to leave right now,” Giuliani said.

“It’s kind of presumptuous even to answer the question, but I don’t want you to think I want the job, so that’s why I’m telling you I don’t. Nobody’s asked.”

Questions about Sessions’ future come after Trump described him as “beleaguered” in a tweet Monday — and days after he slammed Sessions for recusing himself from the probe into the president’s ties to the Kremlin.

Trump had a chance to defend Sessions on Monday — but didn’t take it.

Reporters ushered into a White House event with interns asked Trump, “Should Sessions resign?” But the president just rolled his eyes as the interns laughed, and told them, “They’re not supposed to do that.”

Giuliani, a close Trump ally, said he doesn’t expect the president to ask Sessions to resign.

“I don’t expect it at all,” he said.
