On August 25th, North Korea issued a complaint about China's plans to build telecommunications facilities near the North Korea China border. The government says that China "failed to consult with it about the plans in advance.".The dispute began in late July after the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) made information about terrestrial networks available to countries in June. The information included China's plans to build up to 191 facilities for FM radio broadcasting..North Korea pointed out that some radio stations are located near the border and objected to their registration. The country said around 17 stations would cause "serious interference.".The statement said that China "never made a request for advance coordination" and the move "would constitute an infringement of the ITU guideline as well as a bilateral agreement signed in 1981."
