Barely 24 hours after U.S President, Donald Trump, defended his action of disclosing top classified secrets to Russian diplomats via his twitter handle, Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday that he can prove that U.S. President Donald Trump did not pass any secrets onto Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov during a meeting in Washington on May 9.
Speaking at a news conference alongside Italian Prime Minister Paolo Gentiloni, Putin remarked that Lavrov had not passed what he said were the non-existent secrets onto him either.

Putin said Russia was ready to hand a transcript of Trump’s meeting with Lavrov over to U.S. lawmakers if that would help reassure them.

It could be recalled that two U.S. officials said on Monday that Trump had disclosed highly classified information to Lavrov about a planned Islamic State operation, plunging the White House into another controversy just months into Trump’s short tenure in office.
