Moscow. November 17th. INTERFAX - Roscosmos State Corporation and NASA have reached an agreement in principle on the resumption of "cross-over" flights, the text of the agreement is being agreed in the government of the Russian Federation, the executive director of Roscosmos for manned programs Sergey Krikalev told Interfax on Wednesday.

"There is a fundamental agreement. There are not even so much technical as documentary problems. Since this is a barter scheme, coordination is underway at the government level: documents are being prepared, words are being clarified, a normal working process is underway," Krikalev said.

On October 6, the head of NASA's ISS program, Joel Montalbano, announced that the United States was preparing an agreement with Roscosmos on "cross-over" flights, the Russian cosmonaut, according to him, could fly on an American ship in the fall of 2022.

On October 29, the head of the NASA manned program, Kathy Luders, stated that Roscosmos and NASA are considering the possibility of joint training for future "cross" flights to the ISS.

On March 19, Roscosmos informed Interfax that negotiations were underway with NASA on "cross-over" flights, but an agreement had not yet been reached.

In April, the executive director of Roscosmos for manned programs, Sergey Krikalev, told Interfax that the state corporation supports the resumption of "cross" flights to the ISS on Russian and American ships.

The Roscosmos annual report for 2020 reported on the preparation of a draft agreement with NASA on "cross-over" flights.
