Moscow (AFP) July 29, 2025

The head of Russia's space agency Roscosmos arrived in the United States on Tuesday to meet with his NASA counterpart in the first such meeting in eight years, Roscosmos said. Space has been one of the few areas of cooperation between Russia and the United States after Moscow's offensive on Ukraine brought relations between the two space pioneer nations to lows not seen since the Cold War.
