Trump denies limiting Ukraine access to Starlink network
US President Donald Trump has officially denied responsibility for restricting Ukraine's access to the Starshield internet network, which hampered Kyiv's defense capabilities during deadly Russian strikes. The speed restrictions, introduced on Tuesday night, rendered high-speed military drones temporarily ineffective and left hundreds of thousands without power. While Elon Musk suggested that the US government or the Pentagon might have been behind the restrictions, Reuters reported that the order originated within the White House. The controversy follows rising tensions between Washington and Kyiv over energy infrastructure strikes and a recent diesel deal.
