The UN General Assembly debated Russia’s veto in the Security Council which blocked a draft resolution aimed at preventing a new extraterrestrial arms race. Russia said that despite its “beautiful sounding title”, the text failed to address its declared goal because that objective was already covered by existing international agreements and voiced concern that the resolution could have had “far-reaching consequences” for disarmament processes. China also said that the draft resolution on outer space security previously proposed by the US and Japan is neither comprehensive nor balanced, which Beijing is not in a position to support.
