The United States is set to propose a resolution at the UN Security Council early next week, aimed at preventing the placement of nuclear weapons in space. The resolution, sponsored by the United States and Japan, seeks Russian support for its enactment. The White House has expressed its anticipation for Russia's vote on this resolution, emphasizing the importance of not developing nuclear weapons or any other weapons of mass destruction designed for space. This move is part of broader strategic security discussions between the US and Russia, which include space-based weapons among the main potential areas for dialogue. The Biden administration is actively pushing for Russia to back this resolution, warning of the implications if Russia chooses not to support the ban on nuclear weapons in space.
