MOSCOW (UrduPoint News / Sputnik - 19th November, 2018) Russia's Roscosmos state space corporation is ready to built a KAZSAT-2R for Kazakhstan and launch it, possibly in cooperation with Airbus, Roscosmos head Dmitry Rogozin said on Monday.

"Building this spacecraft is not just a technological issue, this depends on the point on the orbit that is registered to Russia, so we offer a package deal to our partners.

We are ready to build this spacecraft, launch it via our launch systems and allow it to work at that point on the orbit ... We do not exclude working with our colleagues from Airbus who can supply the necessary technological equipment. This could be done in cooperation," Rogozin told reporters.
