The head of "Roskosmos" Dmitry Rogozin, speaking to young specialists in the space industry, said that Russia was not satisfied with the conditions proposed by the American side in the project of the near-moon station, RIA reports News.
Rogozin said that Russia would not participate in the project on the near-moon station in secondary roles. The Americans offered Russian specialists to develop and build an airlock for the station, but according to American technical standards and under the American spacesuit. Therefore, Russia will offer its project for the near-moon station, he said. At the same time, it is not yet clear whether it will be only Russian or will be built as an international one. It is possible that the construction will be engaged in the BRICS countries. US participation is not excluded, but under Russian conditions, Rogozin added.
Rogozin announced talks with NASA administrator Jim Braydenstein, as a result of which Russia will communicate to the US its vision of cooperation in circumlunar orbit.
Last September, Roscosmos and NASA signed a memorandum of cooperation on the creation of the international near-moon station Deep Space Gateway, which later became known as the Gateway - Lunar Orbital Platform, and after the September meeting, 2018 was just The Gateway.
