Ukraine’s lapse in US missile warnings

Zelenskyy alleged that the US government directed that Starlink speeds in Ukraine be limited and said SpaceX implemented the restriction.

Rubio said the United States did not order Starlink to be slowed.

Zelenskyy said he believed the speed limit followed a message from the U.S. government, but said he did not know who made the decision.

Marco Rubio said nobody in the U.S. government ordered Starlink speeds to be slowed.

Zelenskyy said he believes the U.S. government was behind the Ukrainian military's loss of normal access to Starshield and Starlink, citing what he described as a message from the U.S. government to SpaceX.

Zelenskyy suggested the U.S. government may have been involved in the order or known about it beforehand.

Global News reported that the U.S. government was sending mixed messages about responsibility for the downgrade.

Neither Elon Musk nor the US government acknowledged responsibility for restricting Starlink or Starshield in Ukraine.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy said Starlink slowdowns appeared to have been intentional.

Taylor attributed the interruptions to a conscious decision from within the U.S. administration.
