The cables obtained by The Post shed new light into how U.S. officials are encouraging countries worldwide to adopt Starlink. Such efforts are not entirely new. The Biden administration was pushing embassies to adopt Starlink and other satellite-based internet services, the cables show.
Under Trump, Rubio has signed at least two cables asking department staffers worldwide to promote American satellite services — including Starlink, mentioned by name in both missives — to combat “Russian space incumbents” and Chinese companies offering the same service. The cables labeled Russian and Chinese satellite-based internet services a potential threat to America’s national security.
