Ukraine’s Vice PM Thanks Starlink for Help to Restore Connections After an Attack, Musk’s Glad to Support

Musk is showing his support for Ukraine, but the public is not buying it.

The Ukrainian Vice Prime Minister praised Starlink for its massive help in restoring the connections in critical areas, giving them access to the internet and technology after a massive missile attack from Russia.

Elon Musk says that he is all in support of Ukraine, but it did not bode well for the public who thinks that he is hiding something.

Mykhailo Fedorov's latest tweet talked highly of Starlink's efforts in helping restore connections quickly for the country, and it is now a critical infrastructure for their needs to further their cause.

According to Ukraine's Vice PM, Russia's latest 100 cruise missile attack on the country gravely affected several areas after what happened.

However, the existing Starlink satellite internet connections available in the country helped deliver communications and internet connectivity for all.

Starlink is to remain active in the country and more terminals are coming as per Musk's previous updates, aiming to integrate the internet service more for the public.

Elon Musk says He is Glad to Support Ukraine

Musk replied to Vice PM Fedorov's tweet, saying that he is "glad to support Ukraine," reiterating that he is all in for the country that was victimized by Russia during their conflict. Musk expressed his support for Ukraine after receiving backlash from his previous efforts, and the tech CEO aims to show that he is all in for the country.

Musk's Peace Efforts for Ukraine, Russia

The public is already in a mix for Elon Musk, particularly with his efforts toward Russia and Ukraine's peace where he enumerated a four-point plan that Ukrainian citizens and officials did not accept.

It centered on Ukraine remaining neutral and giving up Crimea to Russia based on history and geographical focus.

The Ukrainian President seemed to have an impact on Musk's latest tweet, particularly as Volodymyr Zelensky also used a poll to ask his country what they want to see from the tech CEO.

In the past weeks, Musk talked about his late nights due to thinking of ways to ease the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, acting as the bridge to both countries and trying to appeal to both parties.

However, his efforts were perceived by citizens as more inclined to help Russia, with people saying that he is "Putin's new bestie."

Still, Musk's previous effort with Starlink is a massive development for Ukraine's needs, particularly with the many terminals delivered to the country and its satellites' focus on its connection in the region. Ukrainians revere Musk's efforts with Starlink, but not so much with the peace efforts, despite the top billionaire expressing his support for the country.
