Vladimir Putin has offered to release a record of Russian officials’ meeting with Donald Trump, who is alleged to have passed them sensitive information.
US media say Mr Trump passed on classified information last week, but Russia says this is not the case.
Mr Putin said Russian records would be given to the US Congress and Senate if a request was made for them.
The news comes amid reports Mr Trump tried to influence an investigation into his team’s links with Russia.
US media have quoted a memo by former FBI director James Comey that reportedly says Mr Trump asked him to drop an inquiry into
links between his ex-national security adviser Michael Flynn and Russia.
Mr Trump met Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak at the White House last Wednesday. The meeting came amid an ongoing FBI inquiry and congressional hearings into possible Russian influence in the 2016 US election.
