The Russian Space Agency signed a cooperative agreement with Russian arms exporter Rosvooruzheniye, "intended to raise Russia's earnings on the world market and help it develop space hardware." Russia had earned only US$800 million, compared to the United States' US$50 billion, in commercial satellite launches during 1998. Rosvooruzheniye hoped the deal would help Russia break into the international space markets.
