"I was very surprised that such cooperation exists between the countries," Teteryatnikov said. Russian state space corporation Roscosmos’ cosmonaut also shared his positive impressions about how quickly his training proceeded. In addition, Teteryatnikov said that he feels well accepted in the NASA group and isn’t worried about anything. In 2022, Roscosmos and NASA signed an agreement on cross-country flights (or integrated crew missions). The deal ensures that, amid emergencies or schedule changes, at least one Russian cosmonaut and one US astronaut always remain aboard to manage both the Russian and US segments of the station.

Russian Cosmonaut Highlights Strong Russia-US Cooperation in Space Exploration
WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Russian cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov, who is part of NASA's Crew-13 mission to the International Space Station (ISS), highlighted the high level of cooperation between Russia and the United States in space exploration in an interview with Sputnik.
"I was very surprised that such cooperation exists between the countries," Teteryatnikov said.
Russian state space corporation Roscosmos’ cosmonaut also shared his positive impressions about how quickly his training proceeded.
"For me, it’s actually a very surprising preparation, because it literally started for me six months ago," he said.
In addition, Teteryatnikov said that he feels well accepted in the NASA group and isn’t worried about anything.
In April, NASA said that the Crew-13 mission would include four crew members: NASA astronauts Jessica Watkins and Luke Delaney, Canadian astronaut Joshua Kutryk, and Roscosmos cosmonaut Sergey Teteryatnikov. The launch is scheduled for mid-September.
In 2022, Roscosmos and NASA signed an agreement on cross-country flights (or integrated crew missions). The deal ensures that, amid emergencies or schedule changes, at least one Russian cosmonaut and one US astronaut always remain aboard to manage both the Russian and US segments of the station.
