‘Be Quiet, Small Man’ | Musk Humiliates Polish PM Over Ukraine’s Starlink Funding Debate | Watch

Musk clashed with Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski in a heated online exchange over Starlink’s role in Ukraine. Musk, who has donated over 40,000 Starlink terminals to Ukraine since 2022, dismissed Sikorski’s claims that Poland funds the service at $50 million per year, calling him a “small man.” Musk warned that Ukraine’s frontline would collapse without Starlink, calling it “the backbone of the Ukrainian army.” U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio defended Musk, arguing that without Starlink, Ukraine would have already lost the war. #Musk #ElonMusk #BeQuiet #SmallMan #FreeSpeech #TwitterDebate #PublicFeud #TechGiants #MuskVsCritics #SocialMediaWar #MuskControversy #LeadershipStyle #PublicBacklash #MuskStatements #OnlineDebate ~HT.97~PR.152~GR.124~
