Beskrivelse
“As one of the two principal partners for United States’ technical intelligence, Norway is THE dream partner. This emerged from a document from the National Security Agency, NSA, made public by the whistleblower Edward Snowden. But why is Norway so important?
For over 70 years, the Norwegian military intelligence service has maintained a secret, formal, direct collaboration with the NSA and the CIA, outside the scope of NATO. The general public were also kept unaware of this cooperation. This book is the first uncensored book on the development of this cooperation aimed at the Soviet Union and later Russia.
To what extent does the collaboration serve American interests? To what extent does it serve Norwegian interests? Then it must be asked; To what degree is the collaboration subject to democratic, Norwegian control?
This book tells the stories of the Norwegian Intelligence Service’s intelligence stations located in northern Norway, close to the border of the superpower in the east – Russia. It lays bare the more or less successful endeavours to keep these stations’ purposes secret, the importance of these facilities for the military, and the relationship with local communities where stations were located. Through personal interviews, a number of former employees of the Norwegian military intelligence provide unique insight into one of the world’s foremost intelligence alliances.”
