President Barack Obama has defended newly revealed US government phone and internet surveillance programmes, saying they are closely overseen by Congress and the courts.


Mr Obama said his administration had struck "the right balance" between security and privacy.


He also stressed that the surveillance of internet and email information did not target US citizens or residents.


And he said government agencies were not listening to telephone calls.


The US has seen two major news media revelations on the scope of its security agencies' collection of information in the past two days.
