Ukraine Reports Starshield Issues as US Envoys Visit Moscow
Ukrainian president cites speed restrictions on satellite system during high-level diplomatic talks in Russia
President Volodymyr Zelensky stated that the Starshield satellite service is facing systematic disruptions throughout Ukrainian territory. The government uses the system for national security and military defense purposes.
The imposed restrictions limit terminal speeds to 161 kilometers per hour. This configuration hinders Ukrainian forces from intercepting Russian jet-powered drones.
The report comes as United States special envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff have arrived in Moscow. The pair is holding direct talks with President Vladimir Putin to seek a resolution to the conflict.
Negotiations in Abu Dhabi recently concluded without a definitive ceasefire agreement. The American diplomats plan to meet with Zelensky in Ireland later this Thursday to continue the dialogue.
Geopolitical instability in conflict zones increases risk aversion in global markets and may pressure the volatility of the dollar against emerging market currencies.
