Apple immediately denied the allegations, while the US National Security Agency (NSA) chose not to respond to the claims.

"We have never worked with any government to put a backdoor into any Apple product and never will," said an Apple spokesperson.

The denial comes after the FSB accused the US NSA of installing malware on Apple iPhones used by Russian, Chinese and Syrian diplomats.

According to the FSB, the United States Government collects information through previously unknown malicious programs, using software vulnerabilities provided by manufacturers.

The FSB also accused Apple of providing the US Government with various opportunities to spy on its clients.

These allegations come as Washington and Moscow are locked in the most serious diplomatic standoff in decades over the ongoing Ukraine conflict.
