Russia and U.S. are in contact over non-deployment of nuclear weapons in space - TASS

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov said that Moscow and Washington were in contact over the non-deployment of nuclear weapons in space, the TASS news agency quoted him as saying on Thursday.

Reuters reported in February that U.S. intelligence believes Russia may be developing a nuclear-powered device to blind, jam or fry the electronics inside satellites. Russia had repeatedly denied these allegations.
