Russian satellites are shadowing our satellites, warns German defence minister

  • On September 10, 2025, German Defence Minister Boris Pistorius stated in Berlin that Russian satellites are actively tracking German military satellites.
  • This disclosure followed growing European concerns after reliance on U.S. space security lessened under prior America First policies and a rising commercial space sector.
  • Pistorius disclosed that dozens of reconnaissance satellites from China and Russia are currently monitoring in real-time, and confirmed that Germany's military has experienced jamming attacks.
  • He specified that two Russian Luch-Olymp satellites track two Intelsat satellites used by Germany and announced a €35 billion space investment over five years.
  • This emphasizes Europe's lag behind rivals and signals intent to enhance defensive and offensive space capabilities against threats like jamming and satellite disruption.
