Kazakhstan has seized the Baikonur spaceport from Roscosmos.
The spaceport, which was constructed when Kazakhstan was part of the Soviet Union, was given to Roscosmos (the legal successor to the Soviet space program) following the USSR’s dissolution.
Despite this agreement, the bailiff agency of Kazakhstan assumed control of the spaceport in order to recoup a debt of two billion rubles owed by Roscosmos.
