Could WAR break up the International Space Station? | News Blurb

The United States and its allies have responded to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine by imposing harsh sanctions against the Russian Federation. But what does this mean for the International Space Station program, of which Russia is an essential partner?
Will Russia leave the ISS as a result of its invasion into Ukraine, and form its own independent outpost?
The following months and years might be rather awkward as the space station nears its end of life, currently planned for 2031.
How this 30 year partnership evolves over the near future could signal a huge shift in the trajectory of international space cooperation in the coming years as humanity moves toward deep space destinations, such as the Moon.
