The main principles of the new generation Russian VLBI network development
·Radio telescopes of this network should be fully compatible with QUSAR radio telescopes. ·This project should be based on the results of VLBI-2010 work group. ·The real site radio climate conditions should be taken into account. ·Radio telescopes should work on 24 by 7 basis. ·Radio telescopes should be placed at maximal longitude distance from each other.
