Musk Calls On Zelenskyy To ‘Go’ As Ukraine Leader

Musk said any limits on Starshield were set by the U.S. government as Kyiv reported slower speeds that disrupted drone and defense operations.

  • On Thursday, October 15, 2026, tech billionaire Elon Musk posted on X, "Time for Zelenskyy to go," escalating tensions over reported restrictions on military satellite services vital for Ukrainian battlefield communications.
  • Musk clarified on Wednesday that the US government controls Starshield, distinguishing it from the commercial Starlink network and stating the government determines usage restrictions rather than SpaceX.
  • Zelenskyy stated he felt "betrayed" by President Donald Trump's diesel-supply deal with Russia; Trump blamed Ukrainian strikes on Russian oil refineries for contributing to fuel price increases ahead of midterm elections.
  • Ukrainian officials allege the United States has threatened to halt intelligence sharing regarding Russian missile launches, as air raid alerts in Kyiv arrived only after strikes had already begun.
  • The administration has warned it could suspend intelligence and weapons support if Kyiv continues deep strikes on energy infrastructure, while Zelenskyy warned that satellite restrictions could lead to significant human losses.
