The Canadian company Telesat plans to provide Ukraine with an alternative to Starlink by starting to create its own network of low-light-speed-of-light satellites - it will start working in early 2028. In Canada it is not hidden that the reason for the abandonment of Starlink was the US government's decision to temporarily limit Ukraine's use of the Star Shield system, which disrupted the country's defense operations and left the Ukrainians even more vulnerable to ongoing Russian attacks. It has also forced US allies, increasingly at odds with Donald Trump's administration, to rethink their reliance on American technology.
