Trump denies restricting Ukraine's Starlink access after speed curbs
President Donald Trump denied limiting Ukraine's access to the Starshield military internet network after speed restrictions hampered Kyiv's defenses against Russian attacks on Tuesday night, saying "it wasn't me." Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said speed had yet to be restored, while Elon Musk suggested the US government may have been responsible, with Reuters reporting the order came from the White House. The restrictions limited drone speeds to 100mph, disrupting connectivity for faster weapons. Tensions have risen over a US-Russia diesel deal and Ukraine's resumed strikes on Russian oil refineries, which Trump criticized after announcing a ceasefire on energy infrastructure. A bipartisan group of US senators has demanded an investigation into the network disruptions.
