Zelenskyy says Starlink speed limits in Ukraine appear deliberate

economictimes.indiatimes.com —

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said restrictions on the military use of SpaceX's Starlink system appear deliberate, not technical, as speed limits remain across Ukraine. Zelenskyy reported that vehicles with Starshield connections tested normally in Europe but slowed in Ukraine, leading Kyiv to conclude the restrictions are a planned operation. He also denounced a US decision to waive sanctions against Russia. US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent called claims that the US government caused the slowdown "very reckless." Zelenskyy added that US intelligence sharing with Ukraine has resumed after a temporary block.
