US official denies administration role in Ukraine Starlink restrictions

Original: Musk pointed at the US military over Ukraine’s satellite limits. Now a US official says the administration had nothing to do with them

Elon Musk suggested the US military was behind limits placed on Ukraine's use of satellite services, reportedly Starlink. A US official has now responded that the administration had no involvement in imposing those restrictions. The exchange renews scrutiny of how decisions over Ukraine's battlefield satellite access are made, and who holds that authority.

Why now: Musk's claim about military involvement in restricting Ukraine's satellite access, followed by a government denial, is raising questions about control of critical battlefield communications.
