"It's irresponsible." Pentagon condemned the launch of the Russian spy satellite

Space 2558, launched in orbit to track the American apparatus, is a consistent proof of Russia's irresponsible behavior in space, says the US Department of Defense. The fact that the trajectory of the movement of the Russian satellite repeats the trajectory of the American, became known almost immediately after launch. The US Space Forces command reacted immediately, condemning Russia. "This is really irresponsible behavior," said General James H. Dikinson, commander of the US Constitutional Court.

- We see that the satellite is in the same orbit as one of the valuable assets for the US government. And we will continue to follow him. " This is not the first time that states criticize Russian policy in space. Earlier, as part of the test of sip-in weapons, Russia was destroyed by the old Soviet space satellite. Because of this, a huge amount of space debris that threatens objects remained in orbit.

"Dangerous and irresponsible behavior threatens the long -term stability of outer space and clearly demonstrates that Russia's statements to counteract the militarization of space insincer and hypocritical," said Ned Price, the official representative of the US State Department. Roscosmos denied the accusation of irresponsibility, and also stated that having a sustainable weapon for Russia is "quite natural".
