Trump sold out Ukraine for a bad diesel deal. Every ally is watching– www.washingtonexaminer.com

President Donald Trump’s apparent decision to cut Ukraine’s military off from the use of a key technology that allows it to strike targets deep inside Russia is shortsighted and deeply unwise. It is yet another example of how the president’s penchant for rapid, 180-degree shifts in policy undermines America’s ability to work with allies, thereby undermining national security.

The technology at issue is Starshield, a military application of Elon Musk’s Starlink. Starshield apparently allows Ukraine’s drone operators to pilot and guide the drones over Russian airspace at high speeds. This allows the operators to avoid Russian air defenses and ensure the weapons hit their targets.
