Apple has commented that they follow all international and domestic laws when creating their maps. Ukraine has slammed Apple for not showing a border between Russia and Crimea, despite Crimea being annexed by Russia from Ukraine in 2014. New legislation passed in Russia has led to the border decision, and Apple says nothing has changed in regard to the border for those outside of Russia. The changes to the Map app were announced for Russian users after officials commented on the inaccuracy of the Crimea border.
