EU MAP SHOWS AZERBAIJAN’S NG AND NAKHCHIVAN PROVINCES AS ARMENIAN TERRITORY
Azeri Press Agency, Azerbaijan
March 28 2006
Some parts of Azerbaijan’s territories have been shown as a territory
of Armenia on the website of the European Union European Commission
directorship for energy.
Azerbaijan’s province Nagorno Garabagh, which is under occupation
of Armenia, the surrounding regions and the Nakhchivan Autonomous
Republic have been shown as the territory of Armenia on the map,
in the Gas section of the website.
The Azerbaijani Embassy to Belgium, which has been accredited in the
EU, has sent an inquiry to the EU General Directorship of External
Relations regarding this issue today. The 3rd secretary of the Embassy
Anar Jahangirli told APA that the Directorship contacted the embassy
and said the mistake will be corrected.
The website of another European Union organization-European Parliament
has also shown Azerbaijan’s territory in a wrong way recently. Though
the occupied territories of Azerbaijan were not shown as Armenian
territory, Nagorno Garabagh province was presented as a separate
organization on the website.
After the Embassy’s interference in the issue this technical mistake
was corrected.
