Government papers with U.S. State Department markings were found in an Alaskan hotel, revealing undisclosed details about the Trump-Putin summit.
The documents included precise meeting locations, times, and phone numbers of U.S. government employees.
A ceremonial gift from Trump to Putin, an 'American Bald Eagle Desk Statue,' was mentioned in the papers.
White House dismissed the papers as a 'multi-page lunch menu' and denied any security breach.
The documents also listed names and phone numbers of U.S. staff and Russian leaders, including phonetic pronunciations.
Details about the planned luncheon, including a seating chart and menu, were disclosed in the papers.
The incident is seen as evidence of sloppiness and incompetence within the Trump administration.
This is the latest in a series of security breaches by Trump administration officials.
