"White House Concerned Over Russia's Space-Based Nuclear Weapon Threat"
The White House confirmed that Russia has obtained an emerging anti-satellite weapon, describing it as a "troubling" capability that is not currently operational but could potentially disrupt space activities. The U.S. is analyzing the information and consulting with allies, while Russia downplays the concern. The weapon, if deployed, would violate an international space treaty, and the White House plans to engage directly with Russia on the matter. The White House expressed frustration with the public disclosure of intelligence by a Republican lawmaker and emphasized the careful and strategic approach to sharing such information.
