ROGERS WARNS OF COOPERATION BETWEEN RUSSIA AND CHINA ON SPACE WEAPONS

Washington, D.C. – U.S. Representative Mike Rogers (R-AL), Chairman of the House Armed Services Committee, released a statement following reports that Putin has called for cooperation between Russia and China on military space weapons. 
 
“Our adversaries are working to rapidly weaponize space. The possibility of Russia and China joining forces against us in space is only the latest example of why we must continue our efforts to strengthen and expand our space capabilities. We must ensure freedom of action in space and counter efforts by those like China and Russia who seek to attack our forces in and through space.”
