Rogozin announced the direction of Roscosmos resources for the creation of defense systems

Roscosmos CEO Dmitry Rogozin said on Twitter that the state corporation will direct the resources released after the suspension of the participation of Western partners in joint projects with Russia to create defense systems.

"The main design, technological and financial resources released from joint international research projects with the United States and the European Union will now be directed to the creation of space systems exclusively for defense and dual-use purposes," the head wrote.

Rogozin noted that the state corporation will reconsider its priorities and focus on achieving full import independence in space instrumentation.

In February, one of the two telescopes of the Russian Spektr-RG observatory was turned off in Europe and the launch of the ExoMars mission together with Russia in 2022 was considered unlikely. In the same month, US President Joe Biden promised to impose sanctions against the Russian space program.

In February, Rogozin, in an interview with the Russian Cosmos magazine, spoke about the impact of Western sanctions on the state corporation. According to him, the sanctions regime has become one of the reasons for postponing the launches of a number of Russian satellites in 2021.
