South African President Cyril Ramaphosa clarified that he did not discuss Elon Musk's Starlink satellite internet service with U.S. President Donald Trump during their bilateral meeting at the White House.

In a statement to the press, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa confirmed that the topic of Elon Musk's satellite internet service, Starlink, was not part of his discussions with U.S. President Donald Trump at their recent bilateral meeting.

The meeting, held at the White House, focused on other pressing bilateral issues, but Starlink was notably absent from the agenda, according to Ramaphosa.
