Russian President Vladimir Putin insists his country isn't involved in an effort to influence the US presidential election, even as WikiLeaks released another trove of internal documents from Hillary Clinton's campaign.
Last week, the US government formally accused Russia of launching a hacking campaign to "interfere with the US election process".
Clinton's campaign, which claims the Kremlin is trying to help Republican Donald Trump win the White House on November 8, took its allegations a step further on Tuesday when John Podesta, chairman of the Democratic nominee's campaign, accused the Trump campaign of colluding with Russia.
At events in Florida, Trump said he had nothing to do with Putin or Russia.
"I promise you, I don't have any business deals with Russia," he said.
In Moscow, Putin said nothing in the hacking scandal is in Russia's interests and accused all sides in the US presidential campaign of misusing rhetoric about Russia for their own purposes.
"This has nothing to do with Russia's interests," Putin told a business forum.
Putin said his government would work with whoever won the US election, "if, of course, the new US leader wishes to work with our country".
WikiLeaks, the organisation started by Australian Julian Assange that publishes leaked information on the internet, this week released thousands of emails from Podesta's email account and has not said how it obtained them.
Last week, it posted excerpts from Clinton's private speeches to banking and financial firms.
The Clinton campaign has not confirmed the authenticity of the messages.
The leaks, coming as the election campaign reaches the final stretch, have the potential to embarrass the Clinton camp.
Clinton, a former secretary of state, has repeatedly accused Trump of having overly friendly ties with Putin and Russia.
She has noted that Trump's foreign policies have tended to align with Russian's interests, whether it has been questioning NATO's role in defending Eastern Europe, failing to recognise Russia's intrusion into Ukraine, and supporting Russia's actions in Syria.
