World-famous Indesit has made a mistake on its website regarding Azerbaijan, posting the map of Azerbaijan without Nagorno Karabakh and Nakhchivan, says a letter from a Day.Az reader.

According to it, the website of the company fixes Azerbaijan in a section "Service centers". If we follow the link "Azerbaijan", service centers in our country as well as the so-called map of Azerbaijan open. Why do we say "the so-called"? Because this map has nothing to do with Azerbaijan. Nagorno Karabakh is marked with a white spot and Nakhchivan is completely absent there.

"I believe that owing to Day.Az and letters of your permanent readers this mistake will be corrected soon. No one, either a country, a company or a person, has a right to distort the map of our country", says the letter.

Indesit is among "three" European producers of home appliances. The company produces appliances marked Indesit, Hotpoint, Ariston and Scholtes. In 2007 the turnover of the company made EUR 3,438,000,000. It has over 17,000 employees.
