TOKYO/SEOUL: A war of words over ownership of a group of tiny islands in the sea between Japan and South Korea spilled over to the Olympics on Wednesday as Tokyo criticised Seoul's complaint over a map of Japan on the Tokyo Games website.
"We have ascertained that the torch relay map and other related materials in the official website of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics/Paralympics mark the position of Dokdo with a small dot coloured as Japanese territory, and marks the East Sea only as the Sea of Japan," South Korea's Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
The two nations had a similar altercation at the Winter Olympics in South Korea last year. Japan protested at the inclusion of the islands on a flag depicting a unified Korean peninsula.
