Kyiv has accused Musk of imposing new restrictions on satellite communications

Zelenskyy has once again voiced grievances against Elon Musk, the head of SpaceX. The Ukrainian leader accused the entrepreneur of further throttling the speed of Starlink satellites, which are used to support the Ukrainian military. This marks a new development in the ongoing dispute surrounding the satellite communications service.

The statement comes against a backdrop of intense diplomatic activity. Following talks in Abu Dhabi, an American delegation arrived in Moscow, a moment that prompted Kyiv to once again raise the issue of Starlink restrictions.

Zelensky has previously criticized Musk, with earlier grievances centering on the entrepreneur’s interference in the politics of Europe and Ukraine. His latest statement is a continuation of this stance.

Prior to this, Musk had made a joke regarding the Republican Party’s losses in the U.S. midterm congressional elections.

 There has been no official response from SpaceX or Musk himself to these new accusations from Zelensky.
