Summary
Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk called for respect among allies after a heated exchange between U.S. and Polish officials over Ukraine’s reliance on Elon Musk’s Starlink.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio rebuked Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski for suggesting Ukraine might need an alternative provider, calling him “ungrateful.”
Musk dismissed concerns and insisted Starlink would not be shut off after threatening to do so.
Meanwhile, speculation about a Starlink replacement caused a surge in Eutelsat’s stock.
That’s a core principle of colonialism: The colony acts as a cheap resource provider and sales market for the colonizer at the same time while having no actual autonomy.
We also can see a similar dynamic in modern globalism where production facilities were moved to countries where labour is cheap. Which is the reason many people call globalism colonialism 2.0.
Quite frankly, if europe wants to cry about being colonies maybe they should’ve thought before they acted.
