According to the statement, “If Google wishes to proceed with its requested meeting, Nokia will do so, as we have repeatedly told you. Indeed, Nokia’s Robert Gray explained in his October 25, 2013, letter to Motorola Mobility Holdings, Inc.: ‘If Google is in a position to end the unauthorized use of Nokia patented technology in Android products, [Nokia] would welcome independent discussions with Google on that basis.’ Google has not taken Nokia up on that offer. Mr. Gray (or someone on his team) remains available to meet in Finland before the settlement conference deadline, if Google so desires.”

As it stands Nokia has been somewhat successful in their legal tussle with HTC and has managed to get several of HTC’s products banned in various parts of the world. Assuming Nokia decides to take things to the next level, they will be joining the likes of the Rockstar consortium in taking the legal fight to Google’s doorsteps.
