75% Informative
Kazakhstan has impounded property of Russia's main operator of spacecraft launching sites in Baikonur (Baiqonyr) in the Central Asian nation's southern region of Qyzylorda.
The decision was made due to the Russian state company's debt of 13.5 billion tenges ($29.7 million) to the Baiterek Kazakh-Russian joint venture for work on estimating ecological damage caused by Souyz-5 rockets.
The move to impound the space company's property came days after Russia's chief of Roskosmos space agency, Yury Borisov, publicly criticized Kazakh Communications Minister Baghdat Musin.
