Following a meeting of the Defence Council, President Boris N. Yeltsin issued a decree giving overall control of Russia's space industry to the civilian Russian Space Agency. Yeltsin's intention was "to extract maximum economic benefit from one of the few manufacturing industries in which Russia is a world leader."
