The Russians’ use of Starlink poses a serious threat to Ukraine’s security, Democrats said.

Democrats in the US House of Representatives have launched an investigation into Elon Musk’s SpaceX over reports of use of Starlink satellite Internet service by Russian troops in Ukraine. This was reported by The Washington Post on Thursday, March 7.

Lawmakers Jamie Raskin and Robert Garcia sent a letter demanding the company disclose what steps it has taken to address security vulnerabilities that Russia could exploit to illegally acquire Starlink terminals.

Democrats have warned SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell that Russia’s use of Starlink poses a serious threat to the security of Ukraine, the lives of Ukrainians and US national security.

“We are concerned that you may not have appropriate measures and policies in place,” the document said.

Lawmakers are just beginning their investigation but plan to contact the Pentagon and other relevant agencies.

Let’s recall that in early February information appeared that the Russians at the front started using Starlink terminals. GUR later confirmed the data and made the evidence public. According to intelligence data, the Russian Federation receives Starlink terminals through third countries thanks to the so-called parallel import.

Musk assured that his company SpaceX does not sell Starlink terminals to Russia directly or indirectly.
