Zelenskyy Confirms Starlink Limits Persist After Talks with Witkoff and Kushner

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy held talks with US President Donald Trump's envoys Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, confirming plans for a trilateral Ukraine-US-Russia meeting in early November. He stated Ukraine is ready to meet any day, but blamed Russia for delaying previous talks. Zelenskyy said restrictions on Starlink and Starshield in Ukraine remain in place, with speeds not restored, and deliveries of interceptor missiles are delayed. He stressed that progress requires continued American pressure on Russia and called for moving from technical-level talks to a leaders' summit. The president emphasized Ukraine's need for strong US relations, stating the world would be worse without American engagement. He noted Ukrainian forces continue holding the front line despite difficulties caused by the Starlink restrictions and missile delays.
