The radiointerferometrical network “QUASAR”, composed of six dedicated VLBI stations linked via a geostationary satellite channel with the Center of Operations, is under construction in the Soviet Union. It is proposed to construct “QUASAR”-stations abroad, in China, Bulgaria and India. A short review of basic scientific and technical features of the project is given in this paper.
