Rogozin demanded that the United States lift sanctions in order to preserve the common cause

“For the sake of preserving our common cause, I demand that the US government immediately lift these sanctions against our businesses.

We will assume that this is a "misunderstanding", - Rogozin told RIA Novosti.

He recalled that the Samara RCC Progress, which was included in the sanctions list, produces Soyuz-2 launch vehicles, with the help of which the Soyuz MS spacecraft "has been delivering American astronauts to the ISS for 10 years now."

Rogozin linked this step on the part of the United States with the fact that in 2020 astronauts began to be delivered to the ISS, including with the help of SpaceX's American Crew Dragon spacecraft.

“Now, it turns out, our American colleagues have 'started working' again, and the first thing they did was to spit in the Samara well.

Isn't it too early, colleagues, suddenly again your "trampoline" will break and you will have to satisfy your passion for space from our well again? "

- said Rogozin.

Earlier, the US Department of Commerce published a list of more than 100 Russian and Chinese companies that will be subject to export restrictions.
