Territory of the Russian Federation

[edit]

Crimea is not a territory of the Russian Federation, any more than Transnistria, Abkhazia, or South Ossetia. The UN General Assembly declared its annexation illegal and null. It should have a different colour, as a disputed territory (as should the four other mentioned territories, for completeness and consistency). Michael Z. 2016-07-11 17:11 z

I'm removing this map from both of the military bases pages on English Wikipedia until the issue of disputed territories, as addressed above, is rectified. --Iryna Harpy (talk) 20:51, 17 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sakhalin

[edit]

Sakhalin Island, north of Japan, is still coloured green, apparently a leftover from an older version of the map. Michael Z. 2016-07-11 17:13 z
