Original Note:
SpaceX did not hold hostage the Starlink Communications system. It simply asked the US Government to cover costs of its use by the Urkainian army, as stated in this article. Helping Ukraine is Public policy, and should be funded by US govt, not by private companies. https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2023/08/28/elon-musks-shadow-rule
