On Saturday, Representatives of the Kremlin and the Russian Foreign Ministry commented on Bloomberg's erroneous headline "Russia invades Ukraine."
The Bloomberg news agency’s publishing error about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine makes it clear how dangerous West-triggered tensions are, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Saturday.
"This shows how dangerous the atmosphere of extreme tension that has now developed due to the aggressive actions of our counterparties in Europe. And any spark is dangerous amid tensions.
In general, such a serious publication as Bloomberg ... probably, now we will not say "fake news," but "bloomberg news." It will be righ," Peskov pointed out.
On Friday, Bloomberg news site posted a headline reading: "Russia invades Ukraine" but later admitted the mistake and removed the headline. According to the agency, headlines are usually prepared for many scenarios and this one was published inadvertently. "The headline has been removed and we are investigating the cause," Bloomberg said.
The West and Kiev have recently been echoing allegations about Russia’s potential invasion of Ukraine. Russia has repeatedly rejected these allegations.
In turn, Russian Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Maria Zakharova drew attention to the silence of the US State Department regarding fake publications by the US news agency Bloomberg.
"When will the US State Department release a report over Bloomberg’s fakes? They released it about RT, although there were no facts. However, there are plenty of facts about Bloomberg, and the State Department keeps mum," Zakharova wrote on her Telegram channel.
