supporters of sanctionsagainst Russian companies, but received no response. He intends to send a copy of the message to Biden through the head of NASA Dmitry Rogozin.

Roscosmos CEO Dmitry Rogozin wants to convince US President Joe Biden through NASA head Bill Nelson of the need to lift anti-Russian sanctions. He stated this to RIA Novosti at the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum.

Rogozin said that several months ago he wrote a letter to the US Department of Commerce, but did not receive a response. Now he intends to give a copy of the letter to Nelson. “I will ask him to meet with President Joe Biden, so that together they give the necessary instructions to their fighters for sanctions, so that they finally calm down,” said the head of Roskosmos.

According to Rogozin, there is no logic in the American sanctions, and he hopes to explain this to the head of NASA. “A wise man, experienced, mature, he must understand this,” he added.

Rogozin announced the loss of contracts due to "despicable US sanctions" Politics

In December last year, the United States imposed sanctions against 45 Russian organizations. Then, along with defense enterprises, the structures of Roskosmos and Rosatom, including the Progress Rocket and Space Center (manufacturer of Soyuz rockets) and the head scientific institute of Roskosmos TsNIIMash, fell under the restrictions. Earlier, the US Department of Defense imposed a ban on the use of Russian space technology to launch satellites that are planned to be used to provide services to the US military. It will start operating from 2023.
