Norway demands Russian satellite station removed

Norway’s Governor to Svalbard demands that Russia removes an illegally erected plant for a satellite station in Barentsburg.

By May 15 three large and heavy concrete foundations for satellite antennas, cable trays and two container cabins must be removed from the mountain just behind Barentsburg, the Governor’s web site reads.

Russia started building the station last summer, without the necessary permission from the Governor, who is the highest authority on the archipelago.
