Synopsis

The phone call between Biden and China's Xi lasted about two hours and was "direct" and "substantive." The conversation was direct and detailed. The two leaders spent the preponderance of their time discussing Russia's unprovoked and unjustified invasion of Ukraine, as well as the implications of the crisis for US-China relations and the international order.  The war also has thrown the space industry into turmoil. One of the astrophysicist at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, has said that despite continued cooperation at the International Space Station, the war in Ukraine has thrown the space industry into turmoil. Western satellites were meant to go up on Russian rockets, are now stranded. America has been trying to persuade Russia to extend the life of the station project until 2030, currently scheduled to end in 2024.
