>> reporter: he did. and so far there hasn't been any official response. and i wouldn't necessarily expect to hear one, because what the russians are saying and have said all along since these allegations first reared their head like two months ago back in october, is there's absolutely no proof, which is the same thing that president-elect trump is saying. in the absence of any tangible physical evidence, the russians have said they find it offensive that these allegations continue. you heard the kremlin spokesperson just yesterday saying, either prove it or stop with the allegations. he went on to call them indecent. they have dismissed them as ludicrous nonsense. and the narrative that really is being pedalled here in russia on kremlin-backed state tv is that essentially this is an attempt for the obama administration to try to poison the well, sour relations between the u.s. and russia ahead of an anticipated warming of the relationship with the election of donald trump.
