He has refused to allow Ukrainian troops to use Starlink within Russian occupied regions to avoid “conflict escalation”.
It would be illegal to enable it within Russian/occupied territory because of US sanctions.
He also doesn’t let Ukraine use starlink in Russian-occupied regions of Ukraine, according to a quick google search.
It’s prohibited by U.S. sanctions to Russia.
So if a single Russian soldier enters the US, all of America must stop everything because of sanctions against Russsia?
…what? No, U.S.A is not under U.S.A. sanctions. Crimea and the rest of the occupied territories are.
Russia doesn’t own the land they put troops on? What are you talking about.
I’m not the one setting the sanctions. If you have complaints you can tell it to the U.S. government.
Why? Can starlink not track which ones they give to Ukraine and not let any others work in the area? Or would that require competence that Leon Skum and company doesn’t have?
You’re asking the wrong person. I don’t work for U.S. goverment - I don’t know why the sanctions are what they are.
