Russia has flatly denied reports that it sought an intelligence exchange deal with the United States.
According to NBC on the 23rd (local time), Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said reports claiming there had been a proposal for an intelligence exchange between the US and Russia were "not true."
Earlier reports said Russia had proposed a "quid pro quo" in which the US would halt intelligence support for Ukraine in return for Russia ending intelligence sharing with Iran, but Russia denied the claim.
Those reports also said the US had rejected the proposal.
Meanwhile, NBC News earlier this month reported that Russia was providing Iran with information on the locations of US forces in the Middle East, and a battle over the facts surrounding the allegation is continuing.
