Russia’s role in the International Space Station hangs in the balance as they refuse to sell rocket engines to the U.S. NBC News’ Vaughn Hillyard has more on the story including how the director of the country’s space program sent a tweet suggesting if the U.S. were to block Russian cooperation in the station, it could have dire consequences for the spacecraft itself.

Get our astronauts off and send that thing tumbling straight into the Russian capital !!!

Slava Russia
Russia is right. They have to suspend every activity with US and the west. Let them to drown in their own mess.
Trump destabilized everything by creating "SPACE FORCE".. Trump/Putin are trying to end the world
Bidens war on energy.
Bidens fault. First President to leave an American in space

People USA help me, save Ukraine and people, children. Immediately close the sky over Ukraine.The criminal must be defeated .
Blah blah blah 🇺🇸🪖
Slava Ukraine 👍👌🙏❤💟
All of Russia's people will suffer because of this mad man.take him out
Russia shouldn't cooperate with the west in the first place.Russia has the capability to run the ISS alone.The west especially US is dependent on Russia.US had sanctions on Russia so Russia should stop all collaboration with the west.
Obama is the one that shut down our space shuttle program back when he was in office so we depend on Russia shuttle's.
im with the mcdonalds comment hahahaha
And WHY are we NOT the land lords of a space station?? Our legislative branch can give trillions of tax cuts to the rich, while our space program isn't first in the world??
You are FAKE NEWS and PROPAGANDA! We don't believe your bullsh*t! Putin is more credible than you are! Nothing you say is true! You are lying again! You are puppets for the deep state and Cabal! ENEMIES of the PEOPLE!😡😛
Putin needs to be taken out now.
USA should had put in detention all putin family 👪 on day one ..this would make him stopped and think twice 🤔
What about the Bio and Chemical labs in Ukraine?
Actually, maybe Bezos and Putin should go into space together. I hear a trip to space can change one’s whole perspective.
Elon will find asolution !!

They basically just said they were okay with the ISS deorbiting and now they get mad if they get blocked from cooperation.
It's clear that Biden, Johnson, Macron and Scholz are cowardly weaklings! Putin only scared them, and they immediately got terribly scared and are now trembling with fear somewhere in a far corner!))) Although these countries have strong enough armies and all the capabilities to not even notice Putin's threats!))) This, of course, is not funny, since after the capture of Ukraine, Putin will occupy Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, and the US army will simply run away, since 5-10 thousand US soldiers are simply unable to stop Putin's horde. And the United States will not fight against Russia to "avoid the Third World War"!))) After that, Putin will attack Poland, and the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Romania will not even resist!))) Appetite comes while eating, and therefore an attack on the following countries is inevitable, since the purpose of Russia's existence is the seizure of adjacent territories. China, on the other hand, will first seize Taiwan, and then move on. Thus, although many people do not want to believe in the beginning of the third World War, but it has already begun and is moving towards its further development. As a result, the United States loses its leadership and influence in the world, and Russia and China get what they want again
And we wonder why we havnet been contacted by aliens
The United States and Great Britain has a right and DUTY to defend Ukraine due to the Budapest Memorandum. Ukraine gave up their 5,000 nuclear weapons in compliance with the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons Treaty (NPT) in exchange for assurances of defense protection if they were every attacked. Does our word mean nothing?
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum_on_Security_Assurances
This is important, not just for today's conflict. But because it has vast ramifications if we do nothing. Viewing this in plain site, other countries going forward will refuse to give up their nuclear weapons and we have lost our moral high ground and argument against N. Korea and Iran etc. We will have broken our promise and in doing so, we have relinquished the right to insist that other countries stop developing their nuclear capabilities because they simply don't want end up like Ukraine. We must keep our word and strike hard and decisively.
Glory to Ukraine! 🇺🇦
Elon Musk's time is now
After seeing their incompetence in Ukraine, we should have kicked Russia out of our space program the moment the falcon 9 was flight worthy. Making a new booster for the ISS is easy when we already have the launch system. Russia is so dumb. They say that the USA can use their broomsticks when we already have better rockets. And now that all the tech companies have moved out of Russia they probably can't even buy computers. Let them try to fly their rockets without computer systems. Back to turnip farming it is.
US has no interest in de escalation… its sad because it doesn't care about EU as us has nothing to lose from Russian isolation
Sleepy inflation Biden is useless
No, YOU are letting politics jeopardizing global space relations, and other areas, music, feline?!
