Trump promises report on election hacking

Donald Trump has promised to issue a report within 90 days on allegations of Russian hacking during the US presidential election campaign.

In a series of tweets, the president-elect called the claims "made-up facts by sleazebag political operatives".

US intelligence agencies have accused Russia of interfering in the election by hacking party communications, BBC reports.

They are also weighing claims that Moscow is holding compromising information about Mr Trump.

On Thursday the president-elect said Director of National Intelligence James Clapper had called him to "denounce the false and fictitious" reports of a Russian dossier against him, which were leaked to media earlier in the week.

But Mr Clapper said he had told Mr Trump that no judgement had so far been made on the reliability of the reports.
