Donald Trump's son-in-law and close aide Jared Kushner is to be questioned over ties between the President's campaign and Russia.
The US Senate Intelligence Committee wants to interview Mr Kushner as part of its inquiry into links between Trump associates and Russian officials in the run up to November's election.
Officials are said to be keen to question Mr Kushner about meetings he arranged with the Russian ambassador to the US, Sergey Kislyak.
They include a previously unreported sit-down with the head of Russia's state-owned development bank, which has been on a US sanctions list since Russia annexed Crimea in 2014.
In a statement Senators Richard Burr and Mark Warner, the committee chairman and vice chairman, said: "Mr Kushner has volunteered to be interviewed as part of the committee's investigation into the Russian activities surrounding the 2016 election."
The White House denies Mr Kushner did anything wrong and says he held the meetings as part of his role in the Trump transitional team.
An official said: "Throughout the campaign and transition, Jared Kushner served as the official primary point of contact with foreign governments and officials," the official said.
Mr Kushner is married to Mr Trump's daughter Ivanka and works as a senior adviser to the President.
