Foreign Ministry officials say the Russian mysterious satellite has started showing abnormal behavior. This information has been reported in a BBC Online report.
Foreign Ministry Assistant Secretary Willem Poblet said in a conference in Switzerland on August 14, "We are not sure what made Russia is, and there is no scope to test it." It is impossible not to be a weapon.
Of course Russia has rejected this comment, and has been suspected of making baseless and insulting accusations. Eprothomalo
Pubilit said that the behavior of the artificial satellite did not seem normal. The satellites' orbital behavior is not compatible with other Russian satellite inspections. Russia's objective is not clear in this regard. It's obviously a very bizarre development.
Quoting a comment from the commander of the Russian Space Forces, Poblet said that he said that they are accepting new weapon samples.
Poblet said the United States has a serious concern over the creation of Russian anti-satellite warfare.
However, senior Russian diplomat Alexander Denko blamed his accusations and said it is baseless.
He urged the United States to take part in the agreement between Russia and China to prevent arms race.
What kind of weapons can be used in space?
According to research analyst Alexander Stingings, an organization of the United States Royal United Service Institute, the weapons that can be designed for space use differ from conventional guns or other weapons. Such a weapon can make many garbage in orbit.
According to aerospace expert, the space used may contain lasers or microwave frequencies, which can stop the work of another satellite for some time, or make it ineffective without destroying any satellite. Apart from this, the satellites can create obstacles or jamming activities.
Stickings said that the ability of satellite satellites to be stored as classified data is difficult to know for what satellite technology is being used.
It is difficult to prove which country has made any satellite malicious or deliberately done anything
Meanwhile, the defense ministry did not confirm the surveillance of Russian satellites. However, they did not deny the matter.
A spokesman for the United Kingdom defense ministry said that increasing competition in space and increasing space power could be a threat and danger. As a result of this threat, another country will create counter-measures to prevent warfare in space. The UK is working with their international allies.
