Google Voice puts Karabakh in Armenia – News.Az
Internet giant Google has wrongly listed Karabakh as part of Armenia on its Google Voice website.
Nagorno-Karabakh has declared itself an independent republic, although it remains unrecognized by any other country. Legally, the area is part of Azerbaijan and should be listed as such.
Google Voice is a computer-based phone system, available only to users in the USA. Users can, however, use the service to place calls to many countries. The mistake on Karabakh occurred in the list of charges for Google Voice calls to different countries.
This is not the first Google error concerning Karabakh.
Google Translate in June made a bizarre mistake in its translation of the place name Qarabag (Karabakh) into English.The online dictionary gave the English for “Qarabag” as “Armenia” but this was quickly corrected.
