US administration worried it isn't dominant enough

According to US Vice-President Mike Pence, who also heads the National Space Council, the current administration in the United States will work with Congress, starting next year, to get a law passed to create an independent Space Force by 2020.

"Space is a war-fighting domain, just like the land, air and sea, and America will be as dominant there as we are here on Earth," he said.

This despite the US being on the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space. But, hey, what does that matter. As it is for trade, the military, science and technology, indeed everything else, it is all about US dominance.
