Turkey changed its name to Turkiye this year. Its name in COUNTRIES should be updated, though probably Turkey should be put into COMMON_NAMES and/or OLD_NAMES.

Source: Wikipedia article "Name of Turkey"

At first, I wanted to object because the Wikipedia article is called Turkey. But then I did an additional check and according to the standard ISO-3166 the name was changed.

Since the library follows this standard, the decision to change the name seems logical.
