Quote: “Starlinks for Ukraine are paid for by the Polish Digitisation Ministry at the cost of about US$50 million per year.
If SpaceX proves to be an unreliable provider we will be forced to look for other suppliers.”
Background: Poland’s response came after Musk tweeted, “My Starlink system is the backbone of the Ukrainian army. Their entire front line would collapse if I turned it off”.
