ST.
PETERSBURG, June 1. /TASS/. Russia plans to hold launches of its new Soyuz-5
medium-class carrier rocket from the Sea Launch platform, Russia’s state space
corporation Roscosmos Head Igor Komarov said on Thursday.
"This
project [Soyuz-5] will be used by our private partners and we are going to use

develop," the Roscosmos chief said.

see serious prospects for increasing the number of private partners to make
