I’m sure 🇷🇺 has carefully noted the advanced NATO presence in the vicinity of Kaliningrad the last few days. It certainly sent a powerful signal. Any 🇷🇺 aggression in the Baltic area will immediately impact the security of Kaliningrad.

🇺🇸‼️🇺🇦 Trump did not support the idea of providing Ukraine with Starlink for long-range strikes against Russia, – FT
Zelensky raised this issue during a meeting with Trump at the White House in late July. Specifically, he asked the American president to speak with Musk about allowing Ukrainian drones to use satellite internet for strikes against Russian military installations.
The discussion focused primarily on the possibility of attacking ballistic missile launch infrastructure up to 200 km from Ukraine’s borders.
However, Trump has not made any commitments on this matter, FT sources noted. They added that Musk is also unlikely to agree to Kyiv’s request.
