Russia puts Ukraine under pressure on the front, the new US government diplomatically. Now the billionaire Musk, close to the US President Trump, explains that Kiev was at the end.

The US billionaire Elon Musk emphasized the importance of his SATELLITE System Starlink for the Ukrainian troops in defense against Russia. “If I turned it off, her entire front breaks down,” wrote Musk, a close advisor to US President Donald Trump, on his platform X. Starlink is the backbone of the Ukrainian armed forces.

With a view of the war, Musk wrote that he was fed up with the “battles” for years, and the Ukraine would lose anyway. It is therefore necessary to make peace immediately.

The US government had made a Ukraine policy in Ukraine under Trump and finally fully stopped support for Kiev. From the White House it was said that the Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj should be forced to negotiate. Trump had previously pushed responsibility for the war chief Vladimir Putin, who was committed by Kremlin chief Vladimir and accused him of not wanting to end the war. Putin, on the other hand, attested the willingness to negotiate the willingness. Selenskyj had recently emphasized several times to want a permanent peace.
