Nov 5 (Reuters) - US President Donald Trump ‌on Thursday signed a document to make the White House's Oval Office ​and Cabinet Room a national ​monument.

Since returning to office, Trump ⁠has transformed the historic Oval ​Office with gold accents and statuettes, ​portraits of famous Americans pulled from storage and a copy of the Declaration ​of Independence that hangs on ​the wall.

Asked whether any changes could ‌be ⁠made if needed going forward, Trump told reporters: "No major modification without the approval of Congress."

"So if ​they want ​to ⁠say 'let's not have Oval anymore, let's make it ​square', what happens is they ​have ⁠to go back to Congress, and hopefully the Congress... will ⁠be ​smart enough not to ​let that happen."
