BRUSSELS, OCTOBER 13 /SRNA/ - US President Donald Trump could cut Kyiv off from American intelligence or pressure Elon Musk to suspend Starlink services to Ukraine, Politico Europe reported.

The report noted that the recent Russia-US diesel agreement came at an unfavorable time for Ukrainians, ahead of winter, prompting Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky to consider "how angry he can afford to be".

According to Politico, Zelensky risks provoking Trump, who could cut Kyiv off from intelligence or persuade Musk to deny it access to Starlink services, on which the Ukrainian military relies heavily, TASS reported.

US President Donald Trump said after talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin that Moscow had agreed to immediately make more than 300,000 tons of diesel available to the USA and global markets in an effort to bring down prices.

According to Trump, Russia will supply another 500,000 tons in November, followed shortly afterward by another one million tons of diesel.
