Poland made a statement about the possible shutdown of Starlink in Ukraine.

According to Poland's Deputy Prime Minister Krzysztof Havronowski, Poland doubts that the Starlink purchased for Ukraine can be disconnected. He noted that Poland purchased Starlink and transferred them to Ukraine, and continues to pay the subscription fee.

Havronowski emphasized that he cannot imagine how a business contract for a commercial service, in which Poland is a party, could be terminated.

According to Reuters, American diplomats pressuring Ukraine regarding the mineral extraction agreement are discussing the possibility of cutting the country's access to the Starlink satellite communication system.

One of the Reuters informants noted that losing Starlink would be a significant blow to Ukraine.

Currently, Starlink satellite communication systems are used on the frontlines as well as in critical infrastructure facilities. The U.S. Department of Defense has contracted SpaceX to expand Ukraine's access to the version of Starlink intended for military purposes.

It was previously reported that American and Ukrainian officials were engaged in late-night negotiations aimed at reaching an agreement on mineral extraction.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky previously stated that the mineral extraction agreement with the U.S. was not signed as it was not ready. However, a representative of the White House National Security Council, Brian Hughes, believes that such a decision by the President of Ukraine is unreasonable.

Later, President Zelensky noted that Ukraine and the U.S. continue to work on the agreement between the two countries. He emphasized the need to find a fair outcome in this matter.
