Russia today accused US President Donald Trump of planning to seize planets by signing an executive order outlining American policy on commercial mining in space.

The executive order, which the Russian space agency Roscosmos said damaged the scope for international cooperation in space, was signed on Monday.

The order said the US would seek to negotiate 'joint statements and bilateral and multilateral arrangements with foreign states regarding safe and sustainable operations for the public and private recovery and use of space resources'.

It added US citizens should have the right to engage in such activity and that 'outer space is a legally and physically unique domain of human activity, and the United States does not view it as a global commons'.
