Now, Russia is hitting back. I have no idea whether this is something that will hurt the USA or not.
But it looks like Russia is planning the following:
- "The 11 American GPS stations in Russia will initially be turned off on 1 June, then “be permanently terminated” from September 1, if the US continues with its aggression. "
- "Moscow is banning Washington from using Russian-made rocket engines, which the US has used to deliver its military satellites into orbit."
- Moscow also isn’t planning to agree to the US offer of prolonging operation of the International Space Station (ISS).
Surprised that they don't also throw out any US astronauts currently in Russia, no doubt there must be some there training or something. I know none of this is their fault, but it would certainly get the message across.
