“Russia has military plans to target satellites” US White House official says. Major American media outlets have reported that this military plan involves the use of nuclear weapons.

It also points out that this plan violates the Outer Space Treaty, which stipulates the peaceful use of outer space and is signed by countries including Russia, and plans to lobby Russia diplomatically. The information has only been confirmed in recent weeks, the official said, but stressed that "it has not yet been deployed and does not pose an immediate security threat"
