The organization will undertake this step in order to reduce confusion caused by mixing Cyrillic and Latin when writing the domain names, Julian Borislavov, CEO and Founder of ICN.BG hosting company (accredited registry of EURid) commented. In other words, if the name of the website is: www.cайт. eu, the domain must be redirected to www.сайт.ею.
