- North Korea - Russia (CNKPRU) Tripoint Border Area Maps
On
this North Korean map over the Rajin-Sonbong Free Economic and Trade Zone
we see that the North Korean border north of the bridge is running on the
left river bank. This suggests that the official North Korean view coincides
with that River Tumen is a condominium. However, that the border south of
the river continues to run a long the left river bank must be a mistake. 1)

This
Chinese map seems to be correct according to the Treaty Draft and
according to a Chinese-North Korean condominium north of the bridge. 2)
The
best recently published map over the Korean-Russian River Tumen border
area we managed to find is this. The river border between Khasan and the
Sea of Japan is divided. We know most river islands according to the
treaty are Korean. 3)
