US denies restricting Starshield in Ukraine, says Hegseth

pravda.com.ua (Ukrainian) —

US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth stated that the US did not issue orders restricting the Starshield system in Ukraine, saying Washington's policy toward Kyiv remains unchanged. Hegseth said the US did not withdraw anything and that service providers like Starlink have the right to make such decisions, while noting no orders were given. He also addressed Patriot interceptor supplies, saying the US must first ensure its own stockpiles are sufficient. The comments follow reports that SpaceX CEO Elon Musk proposed limiting Starlink and Starshield capacity for Ukrainian forces, and President Zelensky claimed the signal to restrict access came from the US government.
