VimpelCom’s (Beeline brand) Armenia-based Web site contain abbreviation “NKR”  as an independent state. The Web site has ample of errors showing disrespect to Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity.  

“Roaming” section includes list of Beeline roaming partners. The list says that Nagorno-Karabakh is preferential tariff zone. It also says Karabakh Telecom is Beeline’s partner in Karabakh.  

VimpelCom group of companies include companies operating in Russia, Kazakhstan, Ukraine, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Georgia and Armenia, as well as Vietnam and Cambodia, a territory with a total population of about 340 million people. Services are provided under the brand Beeline.

In other words, any Beeline subscriber, be it in Russia, Tajikstan, Georgia, Uzbekstan, etc., once arriving in Nagorno-Karabakh, will easily be able  to use roaming services which is a direct violation of all international norms.

Azerbaijan’s responsible governmental agencies need to intervene with the matter so that all companies engaged in illegal activities in Nagorno-Karabakh will understand they violate international norms and law.
