The United States has "credible evidence" that Russian companies have sold military equipment to Iraq, despite denials from Moscow, White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said in Washington Monday.
The spokesman said the information was "disturbing" and that the United States had expressed its concerns to Russia.
Earlier, Russian Foreign Minister Igor Ivanov rejected the US accusations, saying an investigation into the claims had yielded no results.
