The French Government has no intention of rectifying the tourist map, allegedly printed with data taken from the French National Geographic Institute (IGN), that sets a limit-change time zone hour between Peru and Chile, which coincides with the Peruvian claim to the International Court of Justice in The Hague.

Through a press release, the French Embassy in Santiago, Chile noted that the red dots on the sea are the limit of time zone, such as El Comercio published on Wednesday.

"This time zone boundary is represented, for convenience, as a schematic line perpendicular to the coast," states the press release.

It also states that the mapping belongs to society Mairdumont, Falk Verlag, 73751 Ostfildern.
