If you cut and paste [69° 26′ 12″ n, 32° 25′ 29″ e] into Google Earth, indeed no zoom. However if you delete the degree, minute,signifiers and are left with [69 26 12 n, 32 25 29 e] it does zoom. In fact you don't need the comma either.

Seems odd that G E works better without the signifiers, but that's how it's been set up. Makes it much easier to type in locations, anyway.

Google Earth here for a Russian Arctic naval base, and military town to the south.
