“U.S. officials ‘anonymously informed’ their media that Russia closed the Anglo-American School in Moscow as a retaliatory measure,” Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova posted on Facebook. “That’s a lie.”
“Apparently, the White House has completely lost its senses and began inventing sanctions against its own children,” she wrote.
“You should not write that ‘Moscow denied…. Or Moscow will not…”. Write as it is: ‘The CNN TV channel and other Western media have again spread false information citing official American sources,’” Zakharova added.

“The CNN story of the closure remains on its website as part of a larger article on Obama’s sanctions. No correction was issued. No call to the school was reported by CNN,” Forbes reported.
