Subject: [Starlink] Starlink no longer available to the Ukrainian army?
Date: Fri, 14 Oct 2022 14:06:56 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8735bqpq1r.wl-jch@irif.fr> (raw)

As some of you recall, Elon Musk recently posted a tweet in which he
recommends that Ukraine should capitulate to Russia.  Andrij Melnyk, the
Ukrainian Ambassador to Germany, replied in two words.

A few days later, Musk announced that Starlink would no longer pay its
fraction of the cost of deploying Starlink terminals with the Ukrainian
Army, and that the US government, if it so wishes, should foot the bill.

Perhaps unrelated, there are reports of Starlink outages in Ukraine.
