In the context of the heated discussion with the Polish Foreign Minister, who claimed that Musk was subtly threatening to shut down Starlink in Ukraine, which is funded by Poland, a debate even involving insults, with Musk telling the Polish minister to "shut up" and calling him a "little man," Musk made a post saying that he "will never use Starlink as a bargaining chip," despite disagreeing with Ukraine. Musk also assured that he "will never turn off Starlink terminals" in Ukraine.
