Starlink’s military version remains subject to speed limits in Ukraine, the Associated Press reported, citing a senior European official who said Ukrainian authorities have not been told who ordered the restrictions or why. Trump said they had been lifted, while the Wall Street Journal reported he personally asked Musk to remove them. Ukraine’s military said Starshield terminals lost connection when drones exceeded 160 kilometers per hour. Trump denied ordering the limits; Musk said Starshield decisions are made by the Pentagon and White House.
MMeduzaOriginal★★★★☆2026-10-23 07:28
Trump said Thursday that Ukraine’s access to the Starshield satellite system had been restored after Kyiv reported restrictions. Trump administration officials and their allies have blamed one another, while a European official said the limits were still in place in Ukraine on Thursday.
US President Donald Trump said Elon Musk had restored Starshield military communications in Ukraine. Reports said connection speeds for Ukrainian equipment had been capped, and that Trump asked Musk to reinstate the service. Kyiv has not confirmed whether the restrictions were lifted and has not received a clear explanation of who ordered them or why.
Trump says Elon Musk restored Ukraine’s access to Starlink, but he declined to explain how the service’s speed and access restrictions were lifted. Ukrainian officials had said sudden limits disrupted the military, and connectivity reportedly remains spotty despite the service’s return.
Ukraine’s military says it has resumed using Starlink at maximum speed without restrictions, according to a report. Trump earlier said Kyiv’s access to the Starshield military-grade service had been restored, while a Ukrainian official denied that restrictions had been lifted, saying nothing had changed overall.
President Donald Trump spoke with SpaceX CEO Elon Musk and asked him to remove restrictions on the company’s Starlink satellite system in Ukraine, the Wall Street Journal reported Thursday.
Donald Trump says Elon Musk has restored Ukraine’s internet access through Starlink. Volodymyr Zelensky had said the military’s connection was not yet fully restored, while Musk has repeatedly denied imposing restrictions. Trump declined to address a report that he pressed Musk, saying only that Musk had put the service back.
US President Donald Trump said Ukraine’s access to the military-grade Starshield satellite service had been restored. He declined to say whether he had contacted SpaceX CEO Elon Musk to ask him to lift restrictions on Ukraine’s use of the system, adding that their relationship was very good. The Wall Street Journal reported that the service was operating more normally after a conversation between the two, though some Ukrainian officials said it was not fully restored.
A Ukrainian official said Starlink in Ukraine remains capped at 161 kilometers per hour, rejecting reports that service returned to normal after a call between Trump and Musk. The cap continues to constrain military operations, while Ukraine seeks to restore the previous speeds and determine why the restriction was imposed.
The Wall Street Journal reports that Trump asked Musk to end Starlink’s slowdown. The paper previously reported that Musk, a critic of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, had ordered SpaceX’s Starlink service to be slowed.
The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday, citing U.S. officials, that President Donald Trump called Elon Musk and asked him to remove restrictions on Ukraine’s use of Starlink.
The Wall Street Journal, citing sources, reports that Donald Trump asked Elon Musk to lift restrictions on Starlink’s military service in Ukraine. Trump was frustrated by a speed cap of about 160 kilometers per hour. U.S. and Ukrainian officials said the system began working “more normally” after their call, and Ukrainian drone commanders said the limits had been lifted, though testing continued.
