The territorial control map should be deleted as this article is about an entity that exists under Russian law, not about the military situation on the territory of the DPR. The territorial control vs. claimed territory distinction can be made by using a lighter shade of red on the map of the Russian federal subjects just below the current territorial control map.
No, there is a big difference. This is territory militarily by one side during an active war. North8000 (talk) 13:28, 17 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I think the issue is that Ukraine, like most countries, is built up of separate internal parts - Oblasts I believe - and I think all sides like to assume that the borders of those areas have to be respected. Thus while Russia claims territory it doesn't control, its claim is based on control over a specific political region. Imagine Canada decided that Minnesota belongs to Canada and they took over the twin cities and the state institutions. If the rest of the United States fought to retake the state and forces from Iowa, Wisconsin, and the Dakotas all occupied a large chunk of Minnesota, it would still be reasonable for Canada to claim those occupied areas since it claimed Minnesota as a whole and the entity of Minnesota has a border regardless of which country occupies a given county. China doesn't control Taiwan's entire political and legal system thus them claiming Taiwan belongs to them isn't the same. 2604:2D80:6305:600:51A1:2330:7897:134E (talk) 01:34, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
