Christian Dior SE became the latest company to face a backlash in China over political sensitivities, after making a presentation at a university that included a map of the country that excluded Taiwan.

The French luxury brand apologized on Weibo Thursday after a video clip circulated online showed a human resources worker at a recruiting event in China being questioned by a student on why Taiwan wasn’t included on the map.
