15 September 2011 Azerbaijan intends to restore historical names of Armenia-occupied cities and regions of Garabagh on Google Maps
Azerbaijan intends to restore historical names of Armenia-occupied cities and regions of Garabagh on Google Maps Restoration of names of occupied Azerbaijani regions depends on the Azerbaijani users of Google Maps.
Delta Telecom’s general director Ramazan Veliyev informs that the border of Azerbaijan on the map of Google Maps is not broken - just the names of the occupied cities and regions of Nagorno Garabagh have been changed.
"It happened because of the lack of full-scale digital map of Azerbaijan by the time of creation of Google Maps, and in this connection the e-map of Azerbaijan is represented on this resource in an open form that allows Internet users registered in Google Maps to make changes in the map, in particular in names of cities and regions of the country and the Armenians took advantage of that. Currently, on our part work is underway in this direction, and the more Azeris will be registered on the website and propose the issue of renaming of names of cities and regions of Nagorno Garabagh and vote for their change, the faster this problem will be solved," he emphasized.
Veliyev says that Turkey, Abkhazia and other countries observing conflict on the basis of territorial integrity are currently experiencing a similar problem.
The garbled names of Armenia-occupied cities and regions of Azerbaijan have been revealed in the map of Google Maps in 2010, and in this connection the Ministry of Communications & Information Technology of Azerbaijan applied officially to the International Telecommunication Union and management of search system Google.
