Donald Trump has one word this morning for reports Russia has damning information about him.

He's pointing the finger at his own intelligence agencies for probably leaking what he's calling fake news.

And he's not happy the unverified claims are being reported on.

Mr Trump says meanwhile he wants to improve ties with Moscow.

But the President-elect is for the first time, blaming Russia for hacking during the election.

Donald Trump says Russia will have far greater respect for the United States when he's leading it.
