Hillary Clinton has responded to a growing controversy over her emails when she was US secretary of state by urging officials to release them.
She tweeted: "I want the public to see my email."
This came after her emails were subpoenaed by a congressional committee investigating the deadly attack on the US embassy in Benghazi in 2012.
The state department is examining her use of a personal email account as a possible breach of federal law.
The controversy has put Mrs Clinton under pressure as she is widely believed to be planning a bid for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2016.
