‘Be Quiet And Thankful’ Musk, Rubio Slam Polish Minister Over Ukraine Starlink, Tusk Seeks ‘Respect’
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and tech billionaire Elon Musk slammed Polish Foreign Minister’s remarks on Starlink access to Ukraine. The US secretary of state accused his Polish counterpart of “just making things up.”“No one has made any threats about cutting Ukraine off from Starlink. And say thank you because without Starlink, Ukraine would have lost this war long ago and Russians would be on the border with Poland right now”, Marco Rubio said.The billionaire founder of SpaceX which provides the satellite internet service said that Poland only pays a “small fraction” of the cost for Ukraine’s Starlink access. “Be quiet, small man. You pay a tiny fraction of the cost,” Musk said, adding that “there is no substitute for Starlink.”Elon Musk has donated over 40,000 Starlink terminals to Ukraine since 2022. Ukrainian troops are using the service to guide drone and artillery strikes, among other tasks on the battlefield. n18oc_world n18oc_crux0:00 INTRODUCTION1:28 “I CHALLENGED PUTIN TO COMBAT”, MUSK TELLS POLISH FM3:42 “ETHICS OF THREATENING THE VICTIM OF AGGRESSION…”
