Previously, leaders of the US House Intelligence Committee said they believed Trump Tower was not wiretapped during the 2016 US presidential election campaign.

They also announced that the directors of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the National Security Agency (NSA) will testify next week about the wiretapping allegations as well as the possibility of Russian interference in the US election.

Responding to reporters, the Chairman of the Committee, Republican Congressman Davin Nunes, and the highest-ranking Democratic member of the committee, Mr. Adam Schiff, stated that they did not believe that President Donald Trump's calls were wiretapped, as the billionaire had alleged.

However, the two men asked the FBI to provide any evidence related to Mr. Trump's accusations at the hearing on March 20./
