Having considered your compellation about undertaking
the research of possibility for the future railway communication
between Sør-Varanger and Russian railway network, we inform you
that the decision of the above mentioned question is not included
into the competence of legislative (representative) and executive
authorities of the Murmansk region, but it is a competence of Russian
Federation. Therefore it is not possible to express a position on
this question.
Thank you kindly for the presented proposals. We
hope for the further cooperation.»
