Apple is accused of bowing to pressure from Russia after its Apple Maps app appears to show Crimea as part of Russia -- five years after the illegal annexation of the land from Ukraine.
Apple is drawing international condemnation for changing some of its devices to now recognize Crimea as a territory of Russia in local apps, five years after the illegal annexation of the land from Ukraine.
Vasilii Piskarev, the chairman of Russia's committee on security and corruption control, met with an Apple representative on Wednesday, according to the statement. Let me explain in your terms, @Apple. Imagine you're crying out that your design & ideas, years of work & piece of your heart are stolen by your worst enemy but then smb ignorant doesn't give a damn about your pain. That's how it feels when you call #Crimea a 🇷🇺 land.
"So let’s all remind Apple that #CrimeaIsUkraine and it is under Russian occupation -- not its sovereignty," the tweet added.So let’s all remind Apple that #CrimeaIsUkraine and it is under Russian occupation - not its sovereignty. pic.twitter.com/GWzPwjHhsB
