/PanARMENIAN.Net/ A new series of school textbooks were published
in Turkey. The textbooks contained a number of misprints, distorted
historical facts and mistaken dates.
Yet, the biggest scandal was caused by the map, marking Cyprus,
Northern Iraq, Nakhichevan, Armenia and Artsakh as a part of Turkey.
According to Milliyet, Education Ministry representative rejected
the textbook in connection with mistakes allowed.
Still, the Milliyet itself, enumerating cities and regions belonging
to Turkey, does not mention Armenia as a separate state, included in
the "scandalous map".
Milliyet published the article under the title of "Scandalous map".
