That's the problem with being a blabbermouth.

Soft?
He went in hard and dry on Russian reputation by the virtue of being a loudmouth retard and is now (yet again) exposed as the moron that he is
Only thing he accomplished was for others to keep the tune going

MOSCOW, September 15 - RIA Novosti. Russia has stopped technical design of a super-heavy rocket for flights to the Moon , but it is possible that work may be resumed after specifying the program, Dmitry Baranov, general director of the Samara Rocket and Space Center (RSC) Progress, told RIA Novosti.
In December last year, Dmitry Rogozin , the general director of Roscosmos, announced on Facebook that the project of a super-heavy rocket, which was named Yenisei (and in a heavier version, Don), would be revised to use more breakthrough technologies: methane as fuel instead of oxygen and kerosene. In January 2021, the Space Council of the Russian Academy of Sciences recommended postponing the creation of a super-heavy rocket. And in February, Baranov told the media that the technical design of the Yenisei missile had been suspended due to the possibility of correcting its appearance. Now work on the creation of an oxygen-kerosene superheavy rocket has been completely stopped.
He clarified that the work was stopped at the stage of technical design. It was previously assumed that it will end in October 2021.
The experimental design work "STK Elements" provided for the development of key elements and technologies for the creation of a super-heavy space rocket complex. It was carried out by Progress by order of Roskosmos. The rocket was to be assembled from the Soyuz-5 and Soyuz-6 missiles being developed by the Progress RCC on the RD171MV and RD-180MV oxygen-kerosene engines.
At the same time, Baranov did not rule out that in the future the corresponding work could be resumed, if such a decision is made by Roscosmos. At the same time, he noted, the enterprise, together with the state corporation, "is working to clarify the program for creating a space rocket complex for a super-heavy carrier rocket."
Earlier, a source of RIA Novosti reported that instead of an oxygen-kerosene super-heavy rocket, a methane carrier of a super-heavy class could be created in Russia: six side blocks will be placed around the central one - all with the RD-182 engine (powerful methane engines) - and the upper stage based on the RD-0169 (methane engine). According to the interlocutor, the initiative to switch to methane fuel from kerosene-oxygen is a personal initiative of the head of Roscosmos Dmitry Rogozin.

Interesting that the journo who wrote this piece attributes the pause to consider a methalox alternative to Rogozin. IIRC it was the Russian Academy of Sciences that was driving the proposed use of methane instead of traditional kerolox.

I am not sure that I concur with the assertion that it is all Rogozin's fault, but it is true that Russia needs to do more in fast tracking its spaceport and launcher development. Deep space exploration and new space station roadmap is also another area it risks falling behind in. The number of satellite launches is not that important in itself but can be an indicator of neglect in the industry as a whole.

Here is something most lower intellect people don't know
You can't fall behind in such things.
You see, China made leaps and bounds and new development. So did India. With very little history or technology base. To say they will fall behind is rather primitive thought point. You can't fall behind it. You either don't do it or you do.
Russia has more things to do and fix before they venture further into deep space. What is to be gained from it is still questionable and thus such frivolous endeavors are a waste in cost till they sort their shit out. It doesn't mean they won't do it. They will. Just depends on the date.
We have no idea what Russia's roadmap is in space development. They jump through projects then cancel them or shelve them. Why? Maybe because they realized it wasn't necessary and a waste on limited resources.
US hasn't been doing shit for a decade till private companies decided to join in. And Elon Musk and the likes will only go so far, till their pocket books and shareholders are no longer interested. Then it's back to the state to do it.
Russia is facing a different issue - "professionals" all giving their input but no one having a clear idea or path.
So far, nuclear tug and Angara are the only thing I'm aware of in where they still have that consistent plan.
India's economy is collapsing and they will eventually put a curb on spending on such endeavors too till they fix their shit.

By the way, China is still 30 years behind Russia. At least.

EKATERINBURG, September 15. / TASS /. Work on the creation of the super-heavy Yenisei launch vehicle has never stopped, Roscosmos head Dmitry Rogozin told reporters on Wednesday during a visit to NPO Automatics in Yekaterinburg.
Earlier in the media, with reference to Dmitry Baranov, General Director of the Samara Rocket and Space Center (RSC) Progress, information appeared that Russia had stopped technical design of the Yenisei rocket for flights to the moon.
"In fact, the work on the creation of a strategic transport space system has never stopped. <...> Technically, we are ready to start creating a super-heavy rocket right now, <...> elements of a super-heavy rocket are evident," he said.
Rogozin noted that the super-heavy rocket "costs colossal money." In his opinion, it cannot be "sculpted from what was", but it is necessary to use only the latest technologies in the process of creation, for example, composite tanks, which will be 30-40% lighter than tanks made of already existing alloys.
The head of Roscosmos added that methane engines will also be developed, which will make it possible to reuse the rocket stages. "We will do better a little later, but we will do so that it will be an incentive for the development of composite materials in Roskosmos, and new alloy systems, and new production systems, and new engines, which are not yet available, but we hope to get them. by 2024-2025, "he said.

Thank you so much for this. Even under the Tsar before 1917 the Russian media (newspapers) was engaged in open sedition and the spreading
of misinformation. Here we have a case of the same 5th column activity in the present day.
Never, ever give the F*CKING "journalist" any benefit of the doubt. Treat the more-than-likely shit they spread as totally suspect.
