Ukrainian diplomats are indignant: Americans considered Crimea Russian
The American publication Vox found itself at the center of a scandal after publishing material in which Crimea was indicated as a territory of the Russian Federation. This is a video about the spread of coronavirus.
As a PolitNavigator correspondent reports, on the map shown in the video, Crimea was marked in the same color as the territory of the Russian Federation.
The publication of the publication caused a protest at the Ukrainian Embassy in the United States. In the comments under the video on social networks, Ukrainian diplomats demanded to change the color of Crimea on the map.
“Journalism requires precision. Vox map needs correction: Crimea is Ukraine. Crimea is temporarily under Russian occupation, but it will always be an integral part of Ukraine. Please correct the map!” the embassy said in a statement.
Previously, the magazine “International Affairs”, published under the auspices of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs published a map of Russia without Crimea.
