Nobody cares about them. (Seriously, we should just give the POS island to Sweden or have them have their independency they so gravely want.... of course, use of ridiculous amounts of lethal force might work too. )

Just designate the area an artillery firing range and general munitions proving ground, let the problem solve itself.
