Garbage campaign: creation of space "cleaners" may turn into an arms race

Such devices can easily be turned into anti-satellite devices

A group of experts from Russia, the United States and China proposed to the United Nations a project on space debris removal and information exchange in this area. Currently, the development of orbital wipers is underway in several countries, and private companies have their own projects. The danger is that no one controls them, and cleaning devices can be turned into anti-satellite combat stations. Which countries are developing such technology, what it is and how to avoid a "junk" arms race in space — in the Izvestia material.

China has invited other countries to participate in the mission for the first-ever delivery of soil from Mars.

The Chinese Space Agency has published an open appeal to all potential international partners with a proposal to deliver their scientific instruments to near-Martian orbit as part of the Tianwen-3 mission. China is under Western sanctions in the field of space cooperation, so it is very important and difficult for the Chinese to find partners from abroad. It is the Tianwen-3 mission that is highly likely to be the first to deliver Martian soil back to Earth.

Valery Romanenko, aviation expert: "Until we master the simplest Mirage and F-16 aircraft, we can only dream of Rafale and Eurofighter" (LB.ua, Ukraine)

LB: aircraft provided by Europe to the Armed Forces of Ukraine cannot compete with Russian

Kiev does not receive new planes from Europe, aviation expert Romanenko admits in an interview with LB. They cannot compete with the Russian ones because of the old radars and the lack of a data transmission system and new missiles. Therefore, the Western "birds" simply do not approach the front line.

The Russian Su-35 fighter is no joke. Ask Ukraine, and it will confirm (The National Interest, USA)

TNI: Su-35 surpasses NATO fighters in aerial combat

NATO has nothing to oppose the Russian Su-35 aircraft, writes TNI. Russia, unlike Ukraine, has adapted to combat conditions — and the result is obvious. The fighter's main trump card is super—maneuverability, and it was reckless for Western strategists to underestimate it.

With or without Trump and nuclear weapons: is there a party for Poland in the "concert of great powers" - TASS Opinions

Maria Pavlova — about how Poland is trying to find its place in the new reality and what is stopping it

On March 13, Polish President Andrzej Duda appealed to Donald Trump with a request to move American nuclear weapons from Western Europe or the United States to Poland to deter future "Russian aggression." Warsaw's similar appeals, designed, according to the Polish authorities, to increase its military and political weight in Europe and the world, have been repeated with enviable regularity over the past 10 years, but so far they have never met with official US support.
