That didn’t age well.
Italy’s rejects bill banning starlink from competition for contract.
It was opposed by the Meloni gov


Italy already has extensive satellite comms thru starlink and it’s the best tech option available.


So who know they might give it to Eurosat but it’s not the Meloni gov who is disgruntled with Starlink but anonymous sources in the opposition party
Starlink is like WD40 and Velcro. It just works.
 
President Trump said he would selectively abide by Article 5, which commits the U.S. to defend NATO countries, while a senior official blamed Ukraine itself for the U.S. pause on military and intelligence support ahead of a planned U.S.-Ukraine meeting next week.


He has already said we would not defend a country in arrears of the spending minimum. That is not news. Now the part about the rest of NATO helping US, well he is just being an asshole. On 9/11 the Dutch scrambled and flew to NEW YORK citiy and were providing Migcap in hours, the Germans were right behind them ( they brought cargo planes with them full of gear) obviously Canada, and the UK involved. And many others came to Afghanistan with us. so it’s kind of bullshit to wonder if they’ll support us when so far the only country that’s ever invoke it was the US and almost everybody showed. I don’t remember seeing the French, but you know big sky little plane billions of people they could’ve been here. I don’t know. I guess I should research it, but I didn’t see them. I was actually flying near Barksdale when President Bush came in from Florida. They were a metric shit ton of fighters out there, easily more than most countries, clearing air space around him. Anyway, the Allied pilots and the aircraft were here. I saw them. So in this case, Trump was being a disingenuous dickhead and a prick.

My 2¢ YMMV
