“The United States is looking for enemies, artificially creating threats in the face of Russia and China. Of course, this is lobbying for the military-industrial complex in order to allocate financial resources for the militarization of space. Russia, for its part, is categorically against this, ”the deputy said.
According to him, statements of this kind on the part of the representative of the US National Intelligence "are perplexing."
“This lobbying of the military-industrial complex and focusing attention on the threat from Russia and China are alarming. Which, of course, is not true, ”said Shvytkin.
Maguire said earlier that the threat from Russia and China against the American space systems and their allies continues to "grow steadily."
According to him, the United States and its allies "have vital interests in space, including military, commercial and scientific."
