Russia's space agency Roscosmos has made public written replies from the aerospace agencies of the United States, Canada and the European Union. They were responding to Russia's request for clarification on the impact of sanctions on space cooperation. The U.S. and Canada said the sanctions will not affect collaboration with Russia regarding the International Space Station (ISS) while the European Space Agency said the request will be forwarded to the ESA member states. But Roscosmos head Dmitry Rogozin said the restoration of normal ties between partners at the International Space Station and other joint space projects would only be possible once Western sanctions against Moscow are lifted.
