Staffers with the Canadian delegation to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) think they're SO funny.
The delegation put out a cheeky tweet Wednesday that aimed to give Russia a lesson in geography after soldiers had allegedly entered Ukraine mistakenly.
But The Moscow Times, an English-language paper in Russia, said Thursday that the delegation needs its own lesson in who owns what.
The newspaper pointed out that, in addition to writing "Not Russia" on Ukraine and leaving other countries white, it also didn't colour in Kaliningrad, an area west of Lithuania on the Baltic Sea that has belonged to Russia since 1945.
It also said that Canada failed to colour Crimea and Sevastopol red, though the paper granted that the tweet could have been trying to prove a point.
Russia's own delegation to NATO also responded on Twitter:
Despite the oversight (or maybe he didn't notice), Foreign Affairs Minister John Baird is still proud of the tweet.
If only all conflicts could be solved through digital diplomacy.
