UK government pledges £45m in surface-to-air missiles to Ukraine as Zelenskyy faces renewed pressure over Trump's Russia deal, with concerns over US support and Starlink access.
British Prime Minister Andy Burnham announced the delivery of £45 million ($59.60 million) of surface-to-air missiles to Ukraine, with £10 million fast-tracked to address urgent needs. The move comes as Britain calls for allies to maintain economic pressure on Russia over the Trump-Russia diesel deal, which faces congressional criticism.
Zelenskyy claims betrayal over Trump's decision to ease sanctions on Russia and restrict Starlink access, warning that restrictions could lead to increased civilian casualties. The Ukrainian leader emphasized that Ukraine remains committed to its defense despite US pressure, highlighting the complex dynamics in US-Ukraine relations.
Elon Musk suggested the US government may be behind the Starlink restrictions, with Musk implying that Trump's administration could be responsible for limiting the use of SpaceX's satellite technology in Ukraine.
