French publishing house Larousse has released a socio-economic atlas of the world for 2016 showing a map of Ukraine without Crimea.

Images of the atlas page with Ukraine colored green and Crimea marked in grey – as are other territories bordering on Ukraine – went viral on Twitter on Tuesday. The atlas does not specify Crimea as belonging to any country.

Crimea rejoined Russia after a referendum in March 2014 when almost 97% of its residents voted for reunification.
