What measures does the Ministry take to eliminate technical problems and improve the quality of communication through these messengers?

The Ministry of Communications said that due to the application of restrictions within the framework of the security measures at the Islamic Games, there were temporary difficulties in using visual and voice on-line communication programs in the provision of telecommunications services (Skype, WhatsApp, Viber, etc.).

At present, the work on the technical update has been fully completed and the capacity of citizens to use these communication programs for local and international relations has been restored.

The Ministry notes that on June 3, the public was informed on this issue.

Despite the fact that the Ministry of Communications and High Technologies ordered the Azerbaijani President to be transformed into the Ministry of Transport, Communications and High Technologies on the official letter head of the department and a letter signed by the deputy minister, it is still indicated by the old name. -06D-
