Russia's first moon mission for 47 years ended in failure on Aug. 19 with the crash of its Luna-25 spacecraft, dashing Moscow's hopes of beating India to the unexplored south pole of the moon.
Russia has previously said that Luna-26 would be an orbital mission and Luna-27 would be a lander with a drilling rig.
As a result, the propulsion system was not shut down when needed.
The Kremlin has played down the failure of the mission, saying Russia will continue to pursue ambitious plans in space.
Borisov said Russia had received strong interest from Turkey, Brazil and South Africa in taking part.
