Canada Trolls Russia on Twitter With Sardonic Geography Lesson
"Geography can be tough.", Canada's NATO delegation posted a cheeky lesson on what is  and isn't  Russian land in a tweet on Wednesday. , The snide post, which includes labels of "Russia" and "Not Russia," was aimed at the Kremlin's soldiers who "keep getting lost  accidentally' entering Ukraine"  a clear reference to the recent capture of Russian soldiers in Ukrainian territory. Exactly why the Russian soldiers wandered across the border remains murky, though Moscow maintains it was an accident. The Canadian tweet had been retweeted more than 30,000 times as of early Friday morning, including by NATO delegations from the U.S. U.K. and Sweden on their official Twitter accounts. The Ukrainian Foreign Ministry also retweeted the map. Russia, however, came back with its own snarky rebuttal. , On Thursday, the Russian NATO delegation's official account wrote, "Helping our Canadian colleagues to catch up with contemporary geography of Europe." The tweet included its own map, which noticeably labels the Crimean Peninsula as belonging to Russia. The map also shaded in a separate color for Georgia's breakaway regions of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, two states whose 2008 unilateral independence is recognized by Russia  but internationally condemned. The Canada-Russia tweet battle came prior to an emergency NATO session with E.U. leaders on Friday. They plan to discuss Kiev's accusations that Russia invaded eastern Ukraine as well as the West's contention that Moscow is directly involved in the conflict with pro-Russian separatists.
