Sweden says its satellites have been impacted by “harmful interference” from Russia ever since the Nordic nation joined the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) last March.
The Swedish Post and Telecom Authority (PTS) first confronted Russia about the interference on March 21, according to Bloomberg, exactly two weeks after Sweden joined the North Atlantic alliance.
On June 4 the Swedes reportedly escalated their complaints about the interference to the International Telecommunications Union in Switzerland.
It seems merely joining NATO has earned Sweden the ire of Russia – the jamming efforts focused on three Sirius satellites that service Scandinavia and some of Eastern Europe.
Earlier this month it observed that “several ITU member states have recently suffered harmful interferences affecting satellite signals.”
Russia has also apparently increased its efforts to compromise the French government, while the country is in the middle of an intense election campaign for control over the National Assembly.
