  • 2 years ago
On March 3, Russia decided to stop supplying rocket engines to the United States, Dmitry Rogozin, head of the state space agency Roscosmos said as reported by Reuters. This move by Russia comes in retaliation for US sanctions against the country over Ukraine. Rogozin further said that Roscosmos will also stop servicing rocket engines it had previously delivered to the US. Russia’s space agency has removed the flags of many nations including the United States and Japan, painted on a huge rocket in Baikonur. However, the flag of India is kept. Dmitry Rogozin tweeted, “The launchers at Baikonur decided that without the flags of some countries, our rocket would look more beautiful.” Watch the video to know more.
