Starlink, Elon Musk's satellite internet service, is being used as an instrument of American foreign policy, according to a report in The Arab Weekly. The analysis argues that access to Starlink connectivity has been granted or restricted to serve US strategic interests in various conflicts and negotiations, giving Washington and the company unusual geopolitical leverage.
