Russia cultivated Donald Trump for years before the 2016 election and holds compromising material on the President-elect's involvement in "perverted sexual acts", according to a series of explosive but unconfirmed memos made public today.
The memos, produced by a British intelligence operative, contain extensive details of efforts by Russia's intelligence community, directed by Russian President Vladimir Putin, to sway the outcome of the US election.
Among the compromising material - or "kompromat" - that Russian authorities had obtained on Mr Trump was a claim that he hired the presidential suite of the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Moscow where President Barack Obama and his wife, Michelle, had stayed during an official trip to Russia.
He hired prostitutes to perform a sex act commonly known as a "golden shower" on the bed where the Obamas had previously slept, the material read.

"The hotel was known to be under FSB [Russian secret service] control with microphones and concealed cameras in all the main rooms to record anything they wanted to."
A source told the operative that Mr Trump's "unorthodox behaviour in Russia over the years had provided the authorities there with enough embarrassing material on the [then] Republican presidential candidate to be able to blackmail him if they so wished."
The British memos, which had circulated through US political circles since before the election, contained details about extensive contact between Mr Trump and Russia in the lead-up to the campaign.
