US hasn't pulled back Ukraine's satellite service, Hegseth says

US ​Defense Secretary Hegseth ​said on ‌Tuesday that ​Washington had not pulled back Ukraine's ability ‌access Elon Musk's Starlink satellite network but appeared to signal that the problem ‌rested with corporate terms of service ‌Kyiv needed to comply with. "We haven't pulled anything back. There are terms of ⁠service that ​ultimately ⁠need to be complied to, and that's ⁠where Starlink has the option to make ​those decisions," Hegseth said, when asked about ⁠Ukraine's access to the US military's ⁠version, known ​as Starshield.

"But nothing's changed from our view. We haven't made ⁠any directives or anything like that. And ⁠we ⁠wish the Ukrainians obviously success."
