Germany's Ministry of Defense and Foreign Office has released its 'Space Safety and Security Strategy,' recognizing Outer Space as a potential conflict zone and advocating for a legal framework governing military activities. The strategy supports a non-aggressive interpretation of the Outer Space Treaty while opposing a blanket ban on space weapons and emphasizes Germany's right to respond to space interferences. Additionally, it commits to refraining from Direct Ascent Anti-Satellite Tests to mitigate space debris issues and signals an intention to establish a Federal Space Law.
