Russian media poked fun at US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton today after she gave her Russian counterpart a "reset" button with a misspelling.
Clinton's gift to Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov at their meeting in Geneva last evening was meant to underscore the Obama administration's readiness to "to press the reset button" in ties with Moscow. But instead of the Russian word for "reset" (perezagruzka) it featured a slightly different word meaning "overload" or "overcharged" (peregruzka).
