Donald Trump is directing his frustrations from the midterm elections towards Ukraine, according to reports. The country has reportedly restricted access to Starlink and Starshield, satellite internet systems by SpaceX, due to Trump's growing animosity. This comes after successful Ukrainian strikes on Russian oil refineries which have impacted oil prices, particularly ahead of the US midterm elections.
Trump has since announced a US-Russia diesel deal and an "ENERGY CEASEFIRE" between Ukraine and Russia, but there are doubts about the effectiveness of these agreements. The ongoing conflict and strikes continue to be a significant concern for Trump, with reports suggesting that the US may suspend intelligence sharing with Ukraine if it continues to attack refineries.
