There was much indignation a few years ago when the russians dared to expel some British & American diplomats for spying.

If this were primarily about Shuttle "secrets" I would be all in favour of them. If the US & EU are determined to do nothing in space I very much hope the Chinese & Russians take up the baton. However the Shuttle, being nearly 30 years old will have few "secrets".
