In addition, during this same time period, the former <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Union" title="Soviet Union">Soviet Union</a> constructed one of their largest embassy facilities in the nearby capital, Reykjavik, which doubled as a diplomatic cover for intelligence collection activities against U.S. and NATO military forces.
