Summary

A Norwegian student in his 20s was arrested for allegedly spying for Russia and Iran while working as a security guard at the U.S. Embassy in Oslo.

Norway’s domestic intelligence agency, PST, suspects him of activities damaging to national security and found evidence of his communications with a handler.

The man admitted to collecting and sharing information but denies espionage charges.

He is also a security and preparedness student at Arctic University, which has seen prior espionage cases.

Norway is increasing border security amid tensions with Russia.

    Just become president and you can speak to your handler with no fear of being charged.
