Putin request to Elon Musk not to deploy Starlink to Taiwan

Musk’s relationship with Putin poses a concern to some in the US government because Musk has top-secret security clearance in the US—and Russia is a US-sanctioned entity and national rival. Starlink secured a $1.8 billion classified contract with the US back in 2021, as well, which could be a spy satellite project that’s irked Russia.Putin, whom the US blacklisted in 2022, reportedly asked Musk not to deploy SpaceX’s satellite internet service Starlink in Taiwan because China’s leader Xi Jinping doesn’t want it to happen, framing it as a favor. Taiwan’s Ministry of Digital Affairs has since said it would welcome applications from satellite companies like Starlink. Do you think that the US can force Elon Musk to give starlink to Taiwan ?
