As I have already said, the document uses a mix of Latin and Cyrillic characters. The letters that appear as Latin 'o' (Unicode 006F) for example, are not that but Cyrillic 'о' (Unicode 043E). Word's spell checker, quite reasonably, work on what the characters are, not what they look like. The mere fact you copied the content from a US website is irrelevant; the content's creators evidently have their reasons for using something that will trip up a spell-checker.
