Russia to Leave ISS

Russia announce they will leave the ISS coalition in 2025. Good thing the USA now has at least one man-rated rocket (SpaceX) to provide resupply and crew changes with, hopefully, Boeing to follow.

I take their hope to launch their own by 2030 with a pinch of salt and as a begging bowl to Putin. Their space programme is moribund surviving on still using 60 year old technology and with little investment. New space stations are more likely to be Indian as well as that planned by the Chinese.
