The Russian President has hit out at those he claims are spreading fake information about the US President-elect. <br /><br /> Vladimir Putin slammed as “utter nonsense” the unsubstantiated intelligence claims that Moscow had gathered compromising material on Donald Trump.<br /><br /> “People who order such fakes, fabricate them and use them in a political struggle are worse than prostitutes,” said Putin. <br /><br /> “They have no moral limits whatsoever. By the way, Russia deals with such people all the time, with our opponents.”<br /><br /> Putin also cast doubt on claims in a dossier last week that Trump had met with prostitutes in Moscow.<br /><br /> He said: “Trump arrives and straight away rushes to meet with Moscow prostitutes. This is an adult man first of all and, apart from that, is a man who for many years took part in organising beauty contests. <br /><br /> “I find it difficult to believe that he ran to a hotel to meet with our girls of reduced social responsibility. Although here we do have the best ones in the world.”<br /><br /> Trump has also dismissed the claims, which were part of a dossier said to have been put together by a former British secret service agent.<br /><br /> But intelligence agencies did brief President Obama and Trump on the matter.<br />
