Turkey officially changes its international name to Turkiye

Türkiye's Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu announced his country's official submission of letter to the United Nations and other international organizations to request the usage of 'Türkiye' instead of 'Turkey' in the international arena.
"The process we started under the leadership of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan to enhance the prestige of our country's brand is coming to an end. By the letter that I sent today to the UN Secretary-General, we register the name of our country in foreign languages with the UN as Turkiye," the diplomat noted.
"Together with our Directorate of Communications, we have been successful in preparing a good ground for this. We have made it possible for the UN and other international organizations, countries to see this change to using 'Türkiye'," Cavusoglu said earlier in Ankara.
Citing Turkish Airlines' "Hello Türkiye" campaign, Cavusoglu said the campaign was seen by more than 30 million people.
Cavusoglu also said a circular published in the Official Gazette noted that the phrase "Made in Türkiye" would be used instead of "Made in Turkey" in export products.
