US President Donald Trump has denied the White House’s involvement in restricting Ukrainian servicemen’s access to the Starshield satellite communications service.
Postxronika.az reports, citing TASS, that when answering journalists’ questions Trump said he did not know who issued the order regarding the restrictions. He said he did not believe the decision was the initiative either of himself or of Elon Musk, the head of the “SpaceX” company.
Trump also noted that he believes the Starshield service is operating under the previous arrangement.
It should be noted that earlier, Reuters, citing sources, reported that the order to restrict Ukraine’s access to Starshield came from the White House.
