President Donald Trump said on Friday that he did not think either he or Elon Musk was responsible for Ukraine losing Starlink access.

Any limit to Ukraine’s access to the Starshield system was not imposed by the United States, Trump added.

Trump also he has a good relationship with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.
