MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 09th January, 2019) NASA became the victim of the confrontation between US President Donald Trump and US Congress, Dmirtry Rogozin, the director general of Russian space agency Roscosmos, said Wednesday on NASA's decision to revoke his invitation to visit the United States.

On Sunday, NASA Administrator Jim Bridenstine said he had canceled Rogozin's invitation because he wanted to accommodate the interests of US senators, who suggested that it was not a good idea.

"In this situation, this is part of the feud between the Congress and Trump. In this situation, NASA was the victim of this feud," Rogozin said, as aired by Rossiya 24 broadcaster.
