    MAIL.RU PLAYING A SMEARY GAME WITH AZERBAIJAN

    Today.Az
    Oct 28 2008
    Azerbaijan

    Armenian officials of one of the biggest Internet portals of Russia
    MAIL.RU, staking on the good neighbor relations between Russia and
    Azerbaijan, decided to play a smeary game with our country.

    This is a game, where the main rule is the complete non-observance
    of moral, ethical and other norms, peculiar of normal people.

    This pro-Armenian site (it is impossible to call MAIL.RU otherwise)
    is again deliberately distorting information about Azerbaijan,
    challenging the territorial integrity of our country.

    Yesterday, Day.Az posted a material, according to which MAIL.RU,
    providing information about services on cheap calls throughout the
    world, fixed Nagorno Karabakh as part of Armenia, thus separating it
    from Azerbaijan de-facto in the section on tariffs.

    Day.Az called on all the readers, not indifferent to our country, to
    write a letter of protest to the aforementioned company. The readers
    launched a campaign on sending the letters with protests. And in the
    evening we discovered that the mistake on the website was corrected.

    Yet, to the great regret and disappointment, today the Day.Az officials
    found out that a link on "Armenia Artsakh" has appeared on the website
    in place of the "Armenia-Nagorno Karabakh" link.

    Yesterday Day.Az received a letter from the adviser of the embassy
    of Azerbaijan to Russia B.Zeynalov which read that after getting
    the information about the mistake on the MAIL.RU internet portal,
    the embassy of Azerbaijan to Russia sent the due appeal addressed to
    the director of the portal Oleg Ilichev.

    Moreover, the embassy official contacted with the company and held
    a detailed explanatory work.

    He stressed the illegality of distortion of information about
    Azerbaijan within its internally recognized borders and demanded to
    be further attentive to the information, posted on the portal.

    As is seen, this interference was not effective and MAIL.RU again
    fixed Karabakh as part of Armenia, calling it Artsakh.

    We call on the Azerbaijani embassy to Russia to interfere with this
    issue and react sharply on the unprecedented respect of the MAIL.RU
    portal towards our country.

    The situation has reached the point of marasmus, when Armenian
    officials of the Russian company deliberately cause differences in
    the good neighbor relations between Russia and Azerbaijan.

    We call on both the Foreign Ministry and the Ministry of Communication
    and Information Technologies of Azerbaijan to send an official letter
    of protest to MAIL.RU, threatening to the said pro-Armenian company
    to completely close its access in Azerbaijan.

    We will continue closely watching the developments.
