A day after claiming it could no longer afford to do so, Elon Musk stated on Saturday that his rocket business SpaceX would continue to pay its Starlink internet service in Ukraine, citing the necessity for “good actions.”
Tweeted by Musk: “hell with it… We’ll just keep giving the Ukrainian government free money, despite the fact that Starlink is still losing money and other businesses are receiving billions of taxpayer dollars “.Musk stated on Friday that SpaceX will not be able to support Starlink in Ukraine forever. During the conflict with Russia, the service assisted both the military and citizens in remaining online.
Musk later appeared to suggest that his change of heart was sincere, but it was first unclear whether it was. Musk retorted, “Even so, we should continue do good deeds,” in response to a Twitter user who said, “No good deed goes unpunished.”The billionaire and Ukrainian authorities have engaged in online arguments over a proposed peace plan that Ukraine claims is overly lenient toward Russia.
