French newspaper Le Monde designated Crimea as a part of Russia

May 26, 2020

The French newspaper Le Monde on its official website has published a map by which you can track the spread of the Chinese coronavirus pandemic. Crimea on the map is marked as a part of Russia.

We remind that this is not the first such case. In November 2019, The New York Times also published a map of Ukraine without Crimea, but later the edition corrected the image. In March 2020, the American media agency VOX released a program dedicated to the coronavirus, in which Crimea was also designated as a part of Russia on the map.
