Germany’s defense minister, Boris Pistorius, said Thursday that it’s time for his country to consider putting “offensive capabilities” in space after revealing Russian spacecraft are tracking two communications satellites used by the German military.
Speaking at the German industry’s Space Congress event in Berlin, Pistorius said the country must ramp up its investment in space security to counter threats from Russia and China, which he said have rapidly expanded their capacity for space warfare.
“They can jam, blind, manipulate, or kinetically destroy satellites,” Pistorius said. “There are no borders or continents in space. Russia and China are our direct neighbors there.”
