105 US lawmakers demand answers on Starshield limits for Ukraine
More than 100 US lawmakers demand explanations from President Donald Trump's administration and SpaceX regarding restrictions on the Starshield satellite system for Ukraine. The Congressional Ukraine Caucus, comprising 105 members, called for a full report on how and why the restrictions occurred, demanding immediate restoration of full access. Ukraine reported speed limits on October 14, with The Telegraph claiming Elon Musk initiated them. Trump said restrictions were lifted on October 23, but Ukrainian officials disputed this until October 24. On November 12, President Volodymyr Zelensky reported renewed speed restrictions at 161 km/h. The Financial Times suggested the US may have deliberately limited Starshield to pressure Kyiv during November 10-11 negotiations with Russia in Abu Dhabi.
