We are talking about the involvement by the West of components of civil infrastructure in space, including commercial, in armed conflicts, said Konstantin Vorontsov, Deputy Director of the Department for Nonproliferation and Arms Control of the Russian Foreign Ministry.UN, October 26.

/tass/. Commercial satellites of the United States, if they are involved in the conflict in Ukraine, may become legitimate targets for a strike. This was stated on Wednesday by Konstantin Vorontsov, Deputy Director of the Department for Nonproliferation and Arms Control of the Russian Foreign Ministry, speaking at a meeting of the First Committee of the UN General Assembly.

"Separately, we would like to emphasize the extremely dangerous trend that has clearly manifested itself during the events in Ukraine. We are talking about the involvement of the United States and its allies of components of civil infrastructure in space, including commercial, in armed conflicts," he said. - Quasi-civilian infrastructure may be a legitimate target for a retaliatory strike. As a result of the actions of the West, the sustainability of peaceful space activities, as well as numerous socio-economic processes on earth, on which the well-being of people depends, primarily in developing countries, are exposed to unjustified risks."
