Elon Musk would have disconnected Starlink in Crimea… to prevent “a mini-Pearl Harbor” for Russia!

When he provided his antennas StarlinkStarlink to Ukraine to replace the communications infrastructure destroyed by the Russian army, Elon MuskElon Musk certainly didn’t know what trouble he was going to get into. The truculent boss of SpaceXSpaceX, which turned Twitter into X, was accused by Ukraine of blocking communications on the front line. For him, the system was not supposed to be exploited for military purposes. He also asked the Pentagon to cover the network’s operating costs, only to eventually backtrack.

Last October, a famous American journalist explained that Elon Musk would also have discussed with Vladimir Putin about Ukraine. In the process, the billionaire published a survey on X whose questions strangely repeated Kremlin propaganda. But today, there is new shocking information which once again shows the ambiguous attitude adopted by Elon Musk towards the conflict in Ukraine.

Fear of nuclear escalation

The information is taken from a forthcoming biography on him published by CNN. He was reportedly so worried about the potential outbreak of nuclear war that he blocked the use of Starlink to prevent a major nuclear attack. dronesdrones Ukrainian naval forces against the Russian fleet near Crimea. Specifically, Ukraine had equipped a swarm of naval drones with Starlink receivers and was in the process of using them to attack the Russian fleet.

For Musk, informed of this intention, Russia would have experienced a “mini-Pearl Harbor” which could have precipitated a nuclear war. He then allegedly asked engineers to deactivate Starlink in Crimea. A maneuver which deprived the drones of their connectivity during the operation with, as a consequence, their loss. This is an unprecedented situation, since a businessman had the power to change the course of the war by saving Russian ships launcherslaunchers missiles targeting Ukrainian cities.
