Ultima criză din Ucraina dezvăluie dependența Kievului și a Europei de o tehnologie vitală a SUA pentru apărare

The recent crisis in Ukraine highlights its reliance on U.S. technology for defense, particularly the Starlink and Starshield systems. Ukrainian officials reported disruptions in Starshield services, affecting military operations. Despite European support, alternatives to U.S. satellite communications are lacking, with no immediate solutions available. The dependency on American systems raises concerns, especially as tensions between Trump and Zelensky grow. Experts emphasize the need for Ukraine and Europe to develop their own capabilities to avoid over-reliance on a single provider. The situation underscores the urgency for Europe to enhance its defense technology.
