Recall that in my blog post of 3 years ago (23/08/2023) I reported that,
"It is now flooding the internet ether that the "Privileged Apartheid Reared South African (PARSA)", Elon Musk,
" ... considered [last year] pulling Starlink satellite internet from Ukraine after having a “great conversation with Putin,” according to a former Pentagon official" (Josh Salisbury: Evening Standard: 22 August 2023) (my emphasis) (cf also: Kate Nicholson: Huffington Post : 22 August 2023).
Furthermore, also recall that in another blog post of 3 years ago (03/10/2023) I reported that,
Putin's Russian TV mouthpieces are 'cock-a-hoop" with joy at Musk's derisory tweet about Ukraine's president Zelensky.
"Against the backdrop of American squabbles, the wealthiest man in the world, Elon Musk, who is now known as "Elon Moskal", added more fuel to the fire and Zelensky is aflame.
...
Elon Musk is magnificent, he in wonderful. Perhaps Elon Musk really is our agent" (Russian Media Monitor : 3 October 2023) (my emphasis)
Fast forward to today and, once again, we learn that,
"Elon Musk said on Saturday that his company SpaceX had throttled the Starlink satellite internet service in Ukraine, disrupting operations that the country relies on to defend itself against Russia.
Musk's admission on social media came after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukraine's access to Starlink and Starshield satellite links has been restored to the speeds it had before restrictions that disrupted front-line operations for more than a week." (CBS News: 24 October 2026) (my emphasis)
Musk is 'immune' from any moral qualms about Putin killing Ukraine's civilians whilst 'feebly' admonishing Zelensky from protecting the civilians of Ukraine from Putin's deathly onslaught against Ukraine's civilians.
As Olga Skabeeva said 3 years ago, "Elon Musk is magnificent, he in wonderful. Perhaps Elon Musk really is our agent" (ibid Olga Skabeeva)
Not to be outdone as 'Putin's best friend' by Elon Musk, Donald Trump has broken a US law that does not allow ANY sale by Russia of fuel to the US, as Russian tankers laden with Russian fuel head for the US.
As reported by The Guardian,
"Three tankers carrying Russian diesel are on their way to North America, Russian deputy prime minister Alexander Novak said on Friday.
In a statement quoted by Russian news agencies, Novak said the cargoes were part of a deal that could see Russian companies supply 500,000 metric tonnes to US and world markets in October.
“The first three fuel tankers are already on their way to the eastern coast of the Atlantic Ocean with significant support from the RDIF (Russian Direct Investment Fund),” Novak said." (The Guardian : 23 October 2026) (my emphasis)
The actions of Donald Trump and Musk, over the last THREE YEARS, have been actively directed to get Zelensky to surrender to Putin.
But neither France nor Britain are being intimidated by either the 'betrayal' of Ukraine by Trump and Musk, nor by Putin's demented bombing of Ukraine's civilians.
"RAF Typhoons have escorted French Rafales simulating a nuclear strike mission over the Mediterranean, the first time British aircraft have taken part in a French nuclear exercise, according to the government.
Exercise Rummy ran on 20 and 21 October, with the Rafales launching from Saint-Dizier air base in eastern France, the home of the French air force’s airborne nuclear component. No nuclear weapons were involved, and the Ministry of Defence said the exercise was conducted under robust safety and security arrangements and focused on how the two air forces work together.
Wes Streeting (right), the Defence Secretary, said: “This exercise marks a new chapter in the defence nuclear relationship between the United Kingdom and France." (UK Defence Journal: 24 October 2026) (my emphasis) Perhaps most significant of all, Eglė Krištopaitytė (left) now reports that,
Nokia, the firm that made the legendary 3310 phone, and Finnish aerospace company ICEYE have signed a Letter of Intent with the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine to explore cooperation in space, and announced it on October 22nd, 2026.
…
The partnership was announced days after Ukrainian officials reported that Starlink’s military-grade service, Starshield, stopped working on terminals moving at speeds of 100mph (160km/h) or greater." (Cybernews: 23 October 2026) (my emphasis)
As also reported by Kyiv Post,
"Ukraine signed seven agreements with Finland, including deals to expand Kyiv’s use of Finnish satellite capabilities through Nokia and ICEYE after recent Starlink disruptions exposed how much of the country’s defense hinges on a single private provider that can restrict service with no prior warning.
…
“We agreed that we will make greater use of Finland’s satellite capabilities,” Zelensky said. “This is important for our defense and for Ukraine’s resilience.” (Kyiv Post : 22 October 2026) (my emphasis)

Putin's 'puny' nuclear fist-shaking, that was always meant to intimidate the UK and the EU, no longer holds sway as the UK and France begin to flex their 'nuclear muscles' towards Putin.
And Musk now begins to find himself merely 'another kid on the 'satellite-block', facing members of the EU and the UK as significant competitors.
Meanwhile, a panicking Trump is desperately trying to 'unlawfully' stem the Democratic tide that is overwhelming the Republicans as the US Mid-term elections reaches the 'point of no return'.
Putin, Trump, and Musk now teeter on the brink of a Black Swan event.
