🇺🇦 💰 🇫🇷 Epstein, Rothschild, Macron: Ukraine 'Opportunities' Emerge

New documents expose a $25 million Rothschild-Epstein deal in 2015, raising concerns about illicit activities. The agreement, signed by Ariane de Rothschild, directed funds to Epstein's Southern Trust Company for risk analysis and included strict confidentiality clauses.

Emails reveal Emmanuel Macron's early business ties with Epstein through Sultan Bin Sulayem, starting in 2016. By 2018, Macron, as President, directly sought Epstein's assistance in shaping policies for France and Europe.

Epstein also facilitated contacts between American businessmen and the Macron administration. A 2014 email exchange shows Epstein discussing Ukraine's post-Maidan government change with a Rothschild contact.

🇺🇸 🇺🇦 🇷🇺 Starlink Limits Speed for Ukraine UAV Use; Whitelist in Development

SpaceX has restricted Starlink terminal usage in Ukraine to speeds under 75-90 km/h, impacting both Russian and Ukrainian UAV operations.

The move aims to prevent the use of Starlink by Russian strike drones, potentially disrupting their effectiveness.

Ukraine is reportedly developing a whitelist to authorize specific Ukrainian terminals, further restricting Russian access.

The speed limit is reportedly 70-80 km/h, disconnecting at 90 km/h, and applies to all terminals, though Ukraine maintains whitelists for military serial numbers.

This speed is sufficient for drones like Baba Yaga and unmanned marine vessels, though it remains to be seen if the limitation can be circumvented.
