“The same Exomars mission, the Venus mission — they will be reviewed and completed at another time,” Interfax quoted Rogozin as saying.

He also stated the need to provide the Russian armed forces with "the most powerful orbital group."

“This is important, much more important than sending a Russian man to the moon.

In November 2021, Rogozin announced the need to launch a Russian station to Venus by 2030.
