iStockphoto/Thinkstock(BRUSSELS, Belgium) — In case the actual war in Ukraine wasn’t enough, there’s also a Twitter battle raging between the Canadian and Russian missions to NATO.
It all started with the Canadian mission’s Twitter account, which on Wednesday tweeted a snarky map intended to “help” the Russian soldiers who ended up in Ukraine but reportedly claimed they didn’t know where they were going.

Not to be outdone, the Russian mission quickly returned rhetorical fire, tweeting out its own map showing Crimea as part of Russia.
