According to Russian media reports on November 30, Yermakov, director of the Department of Non-Proliferation and Arms Control of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said that the satellite , used by the West to support Ukraine in the Ukrainian crisis, may become the target of the Russian army's legal strike.
Yermakov said that Western countries are actively using civilian space infrastructure such as low-orbit satellite to support Ukrainian military operations. Russia calls for the formulation of legally binding international law norms to prevent a space arms race to ensure the peaceful nature of outer space activities.
Deputy Director of the Department of Non-Proliferation and Arms Control of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Konstantin Vorontov also said at a UN General Assembly meeting that if US commercial satellites are used for Ukrainian conflict , satellites may be regarded as a legal target of Russia's strike. Vorontov stressed: "I would like to remind everyone to pay special attention to the extremely dangerous trends that have emerged in the development of Ukraine. I am referring to the use of civilian infrastructure for outer space, including commercial facilities in conflicts."
Comprehensive foreign media previously reported that CEO of the US space exploration technology company (SpaceX), Elon Musk , previously stated on Twitter that SpaceX is unable to continue to pay for the operation of the " Starlink " project in Ukraine. He also said that the "Starlink" system has become a key channel for the Ukrainian government and military to maintain communications, and Russia is trying to paralyze the system. However, according to Reuters, Musk changed his attitude on October 16, saying that SpaceX will continue to contribute to the "Starlink" project in Ukraine.
