Greetings,
Two things to keep in mind. NASA (USA) is one of 20 plus countries that have a direct interest in the ISS.
Second, the MIR space station was orginally intended to have a 5 year life span. It ended up flying for 15 years.

The International Space Station will be retired in 20015-2016. We do not have much time left, before NASA pulls the plug!
