‘Sami rights are at risk’: Reindeer herders, environmentalists oppose mine in Norway's Arctic

In Norway's far north, members of the Sami minority and environmental activists are trying to block the construction of a copper mine.

Beaska Niillas of the Sami Parliament explains his community's opposition.
