President Joe Biden announced new sanctions Thursday targeting Russian financial and technology sectors, including its space program.

"Between our actions and those of our allies and partners, we estimate that will cut off more than half of Russia's high-tech imports and will strike a blow to their ability to continue to modernize their military," Biden said Thursday. "It'll degrade their aerospace industry, including their space program, and hurt their ability to build ships, reducing their ability to compete economically.
NASA astronauts regularly train in Russia, and cosmonauts conduct training at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston. Bubbling tensions between the U.S. and Russia finally spilled into the natural area of science and space exploration Thursday when Dmitry Rogozin, who oversees Roscosmos, responded to Biden's comments and the new sanctions."This is how you already do it by limiting exchanges between our cosmonaut and astronaut training centers.
