Original caption
Elon Musk faces tough questions about the immense power of Starlink in the Ukraine conflict. While the journalist challenges the ethics of an individual controlling a vital battlefield capability, Musk pushes back with a sobering take on the realities of war, reminding everyone that in the heat of aggression, there are no angels. A fascinating look at the intersection of private tech and global geopolitics. #ElonMusk #UkraineWar #Starlink #Geopolitics #TechNews
