Donald Trump Denies Involvement in Starlink Service Slowdown in Ukraine
President Donald Trump has issued a formal denial regarding allegations that he ordered a slowdown of SpaceX's Starlink satellite services in Ukraine. This follows reports from The Wall Street Journal suggesting that Elon Musk had discussed such a decision with the President. Trump stated on Wednesday that he was unaware of any specific actions taken to cap the critical communication service and denied having any role in the matter. The controversy centers on whether private decisions by SpaceX leadership or political directives influenced the availability of satellite internet used during the conflict.
