It does sound pretty extreme, but there is also such a thing as, you know, signal interference. If it affects the service on Russian territory, that's a reasonable request.

However, hopefully this means that Russia will give something in return. Agreements like this do not normally happen for free, so I think there's gotta be some other side to the story here.

Unless of course the Russian "offer" is "give us the buffer zone or we'll turn the Woodpecker back on!"
