Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov also today hit out at Steele over the  "made up" dossier.

Mr Lavrov also said allegations of Russian cyber attacks to affect the result of the US election were fabricated.

The minister told a press conference that US intelligence agencies who had tried to prove Mr Trump had links to Russia have drawn a blank and should be fired.

Mr Trump, who will be sworn in on Friday, has dismissed the dossier, saying it was "made up" and based on "phoney facts".

Moscow said the claims were "fake" and had been whipped up to damage Russian ties with Washington.
