Baku ` APA. Google maps mistakenly shows Azerbaijan’s town of Khojavend as Martuni, our compatriot Elshan Rahimov told APA.

He said that in 1990-1991 under the decision of Azerbaijani parliament, Martuni region was renamed as Khojavend, but Google maps still uses the name Martuni.

Khojavend is under Armenian occupation and the separatist regime in Nagorno Karabakh calls this region Martuni.
