Washington, January 6, 2025 – U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken has expressed concern over the growing collaboration between Russia and North Korea in space technology, warning that it could lead to the development of advanced military technologies. Blinken highlighted the risks this partnership poses to global security, especially with regards to the use of space for military purposes.
The U.S. is closely monitoring the situation, as both countries share technological resources that could enhance their missile and satellite capabilities. These developments have raised international concerns, particularly amidst ongoing tensions between the West and Russia and growing worries over North Korea’s missile programs.
