    The Foreign Ministry of Azerbaijan criticizes Google for distorting
    names of Azerbaijani areas and presenting Armenian names on Google
    maps.

    Yesterday, Azerbaijan's Foreign Ministry issued an official statement
    urging Azeris to take up active steps to restore Azerbaijani names
    of the territories.

    On Google Maps, Armenian names of places in Karabakh and adjacent
    territories are presented, while Azerbaijan requires writing the Azeri
    names - instead of Varanda- Fizuli, Kovsakan-Zangilan, Karvachar -
    Kalbajar, Akna - Aghdam, Sanasar-Gubadli, Jrakan-Jabrayil, Stepanakert-
    Khankendi, Martakert-Agdere, Martuni-Khojavend.
