I see the continuation of the space programme, the Soyuz launches, and the pick-up of US astronauts from the ISS as a symbol of the grown-ups continuing to get on with civilisation while the children squabble and fight.

Last time I suggested that "good-will in space might set an example and be a symbol for diplomacy to ease Earthly tensions, I was down-voted by haters.

Unfortunately one of the most childish folks in all of this is at the head of Russia's space program, so medium term doesn't look great for cooperation
