Original Note:
"Elon refuses to directly participate in a war..." Elon's Starlink directly participates in the war in Ukraine. Activating or not the service in Crimea did not affect that fact, which was also confirmed in the attached video, so there is no need for additional references. https://www.voanews.com/a/how-elon-musk-s-starlink-is-helping-ukraine-during-war-with-russia/6641210.html https://www.economist.com/briefing/2023/01/05/how-elon-musks-satellites-have-saved-ukraine-and-changed-warfare https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/security/elon-musks-starlink-internet-becomes-lifeline-ukrainians-rcna25360
