Zelenskyy Pushes Musk for Starlink Strikes | Roanoke News
Description
Ukrainian President Zelenskyy is pushing hard for Elon Musk to allow Starlink use inside Russia to boost Ukraine’s long-range strike accuracy, pitching the idea directly to Trump and lawmakers in Washington. While Musk currently permits Starlink in Ukrainian-held territory—even occupied zones—he’s drawn a line at operations within Russia. With Patriot missile supplies dwindling, Zelenskyy is also lobbying for more systems and domestic production licenses, though Trump appears to be backing away from that promise. Meanwhile, Zelenskyy is positioning Ukraine as a global ally, offering its drone warfare expertise to help counter Iranian threats—while Russia reportedly eyes Starlink as a key target with emerging anti-satellite weapons.
