Lloyd Austin noted that he would urge Russia and all other countries to behave responsibly in this regard

WASHINGTON, November 17. /tass/. The United States is concerned about the militarization of outer space and wants to see all countries behave responsibly in this matter. This was stated at a briefing on Wednesday by US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin.

"We are definitely concerned about the militarization of outer space and would urge Russia and all other countries to behave responsibly in this regard," he said, answering a question about Russia's recent tests, during which an inactive Russian spacecraft was successfully hit.

On Tuesday, the Russian military department announced the tests, during which an inactive Russian spacecraft was successfully hit. The Defense Ministry stressed that it is carrying out planned activities to strengthen its defense capability, and recalled that the main goal of the new US space strategy is to "create a comprehensive military advantage" in this area.

The military department stressed that the fragments formed after the defeat of the satellite do not pose a threat to the International Space Station and satellites, emphasizing that the satellite fragments are included in the main catalog of the domestic space control system and are immediately taken for escort until their existence ceases.
