Russian President Vladimir Putin raps those behind fake reports on US President-elect Donald Trump calling them worse than prostitutes.
Putin’s Tuesday remarks were his first direct denial of an unverified report compiled by a former British intelligence agent that claimed Trump was compromised while on a trip to Russia in 2013.
“The people who are ordering this kind of false information, who are now disseminating it against the president-elect of the United States, who fabricate it and use it in a political fight, are worse than prostitutes,” he said while addressing reporters in Moscow.
While adding that such people have "no moral scruples," he stressed that at the time Trump was in Moscow for the Miss Universe pageant Moscow was not even aware that he had political ambitions.
