Lux readies for "far-reaching" space agreement with US | #Luxembourg  | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it

Luxembourg expects to sign a space cooperation agreement with the US, anticipated to be the “most far-reaching agreement since the launch” of the Space Resources initiative.

Speaking at a Space Café meeting at BIL headquarters on 26 February, deputy prime minister and economy minister Etienne Schneider told an audience of over 100 people that the US ambassador to Luxembourg had said the White House was very interested in Luxembourg’s activities in the newspace sector.

“The first thing I thought was ‘that’s not good because I’m not minister of defence any more. I won’t be able to defend my initiative’. He explained that they really see a bright future between Luxembourg and the US in order to put our forces together to further develop our activities,” the minister said.
