Hamad International Airport in Qatar has started using the correct name for the Ukrainian capital in Latin – "Kyiv" instead of "Kiev."
The Foreign Ministry of Ukraine wrote about this on its Facebook page.
“From now on Hamad International Airport in the State of Qatar has changed the spelling #KyivNotKiev," reads the report.
As Ukrinform reported, the Foreign Ministry initiated the online campaign #CorrectUA that was launched in October 2018.
The Foreign Ministry calls on foreign official institutions and commercial companies to abandon using spelling of Ukrainian cities derived from the Russian language and replacing them with the correct ones: Kyiv, Odesa, Kharkiv, Lviv, and Zaporizhzhia. The campaign also launched the flash mob #KyivNotKiev.
