Bulgarians were also denied a Cyrillic domain.
ICANN denied Bulgaria's request to delegate the Cyrillic domain ".бг." The issue arose due to the domain's similarity to the existing Brazilian top-level domain ".br."
For several months, the country has been actively discussing what a Cyrillic domain for Bulgaria should look like. A vote among internet users was even held. However, many analysts emphasized that the likelihood of the country receiving such a domain was very low, precisely because of its similarity to a previously delegated domain name.
The ".бгр" domain could become an alternative to the unfamiliar ".бг." Discussions are currently underway on a new Cyrillic domain for the country.
Let us recall that several weeks ago, ICANN delegated domains in national languages for Russia, the UAE, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia.
