一 | Washington, Oct 15 (UNI) In his latest spat with Kyiv, Elon Musk has said his rocket firm SpaceX cannot continue indefinitely paying for Ukraine's Starlink internet service.
In February, the world's richest man activated his company's satellite internet system in Ukraine to keep its military and people online.
The programme costs $20 million per month to maintain, according to Musk. He has said SpaceX had spent $80 million so far to keep Ukraine online.
But in September, the Tesla owner asked the Pentagon to fund the programme, according to US media. He also recently provoked Kyiv's ire by suggesting it cede territory.
Earlier in October, Musk tweeted out a proposal that Ukraine accept Russia's annexation of Crimea and allow referendums in Ukrainian regions invaded by Moscow. The Kremlin responded positively to the overture.
But Ukraine's outgoing ambassador to Germany, Andrij Melnyk, posted a tweet telling Musk to go away, using a swear word. Responding on Friday to a post referring to the ambassador's remark, Musk said: "We're just following his recommendation."
"SpaceX is not asking to recoup past expenses, but also cannot fund the existing system indefinitely," Musk tweeted on Friday, referring to his space company that makes the Starlink system.
Starlink works by providing broadband internet through a network of satellites. It has proven vital for Ukraine's military as it fights to retake Ukrainian land from Russia, the BBC reported.
Ukraine credited Starlink this week with helping to reboot its infrastructure in key areas following more than 100 Russian missile strikes.
Musk also tweeted that in addition to terminals, "we have to create, launch, maintain & replenish satellites & ground stations. "We've also had to defend against cyberattacks & jamming, which are getting harder."
Ukraine's vice-Prime Minister, Mykhailo Fedorov, downplayed tensions with Musk, writing on Twitter that the billionaire "is among the world's top private donors supporting Ukraine". "Starlink is an essential element of our critical infrastructure," he wrote.
A Ukrainian presidential advisor said that Ukraine will find a solution to keep Starlink working, the BBC reported.

二 | 未能将足球的最佳利益放在首位，是我们无法接受的失败。”目前，因凡蒂诺正面临来自各国足协及国际足联内部日益增长的压力：他的长期顾问卡洛斯·科尔代罗因抗议其最初的提议而选择辞职，而国际足联首席运营官也指责因凡蒂诺在相关计划上“欺骗”了员工。外界如今开始质疑他是否还能继续担任主席一职。
三 | 报道称，因凡蒂诺在铺天盖地的负面舆论中感到“孤立无援”，正急切寻找有分量的盟友公开支持他。在无法联系上特朗普后，他转而将希望寄托于美国国务卿鲁比奥，试图借“足球作为美国软实力”的名义寻求美国政府为其保住职位。值得一提的是，就在几天前，特朗普还断然否认知晓因凡蒂诺这一大胆的出售计划。当被问及“因凡蒂诺先生是否向您提及过出售世界杯部分股权的提案”时，特朗普先是冷冰冰地回应：“谁？”在问题被重复后，这位美国总统补充道：“没有，我没和他聊过这件事。”《泰晤士报》指出，由于放弃出售世界杯股权，因凡蒂诺无缘5500万欧的天价年薪，这一数字与美国职业橄榄球大联盟（NFL）总裁罗杰·古德尔的收入持平。
