Sanctions imposed on Roscosmos could cost UK some $8 bln - Rogozin

MOSCOW. March 3 (Interfax) - The OneWeb company, where the UK government holds a stake, could lose approximately $8 billion as a result of the sanctions imposed on Roscosmos, head of the Russian state space corporation Dmitry Rogozin said.

"As regards the OneWeb company, we simply will not let it deploy its satellite group in the end. This company will go bankrupt if such a decision is adopted in the future. If we adopt it, the British government [...] will lose around $8 billion," Rogozin said during the Bolshaya Igra program on Channel One.
