Russia puts Kosovo on the map, although it does not recognize it as independent state

 Kosovo borders on Russian maps. Although Moscow does not recognize the independence of Europe's newest state, it appears that on maps used by the military it has outlined the borders of Kosovo.

This is stated in the videos posted by the Ministry of Defense from time to time, where the spokesman Igor Konashekov reports on the progress of what Russia calls a "special operation", but which is practically an invasion of Ukraine.

Russian aggression began shortly after Putin and the Russian Duma recognized the independence of the two so-called Donetsk and Luhansk regions. In 2014, Russia annexed the Crimean Peninsula and did so by removing comparisons with Kosovo. President Putin himself said that a few days ago that the world should recognize Crimea as a territorial part of Russia, as it is a case similar to Kosovo.


"What everyone needs to do is recognize the will of the people living in Sevastopol and Crimea. I have said it many times, why is this expression of will differ from what happened in Kosovo? The only difference is that the decision there came from parliament, while here we had a popular referendum. "Let me emphasize this again: No one can force people to go and vote under the threat of gunfire," Putin said last Tuesday.
