According to Zakharova, the outgoing American administration is “a group of foreign losers, angry and narrow-minded”, and President Barack Obama officially admitted. “Today America, the American people were humiliated by their own President. Not international terrorists, not enemy troops. This time a slap in the face to Washington was caused by his host, maximizing the number of urgent cases to the incoming team,” she said.
