20 World Capital Pairs Closest to X but far from each other

You land on a random point X on Earth. The two closest world capitals A and B are very far from each other. List all possible A-B such that the distance between them is greater than 5,000 km.

A point X maximising distances between A-X and B-X has been chosen for each pair.

When you guess a world capital a dot on the corresponding X will appear: a large one if it is A (the closest capital), a small one if it is B. Dots that would be off the map because too near to the Poles have been moved on the border of the map.
There might be mistakes because of calculations near the Poles
