Elon Musk has suggested that the US government may be behind restrictions on the speed at which some of Ukraine's weapons can travel and stay connected to his Starlink internet network.
埃隆·马斯克表示,美国政府可能是对乌克兰部分武器的传输速度和与其星链互联网网络保持连接的限制的幕后黑手。
Starlink is a vital tool allowing Kyiv to guide drones to Russian targets and also protect its own skies, but on Tuesday night Ukraine said unexpected new speed limits were disrupting its battlefield missions.
星链是基辅引导无人机飞向俄罗斯目标并保护本国天空的重要工具,但乌克兰周二晚间表示,意外的新速度限制正在扰乱其战场任务。
An advisor to president Zelensky said he believed the restrictions were not a co-incidence and were related to the latest strains between Kyiv and Washington Musk said that Starshield, the military-grade sister service to Starlink, is controlled by the US government, and "any limits on speed or usage are decided by the US military and ultimately [the US president]".
泽伦斯基总统的一名顾问表示,他认为这些限制并非巧合,而是与基辅和华盛顿之间的最新紧张局势有关 马斯克表示,星盾是星链的军用级姊妹服务,由美国政府控制,“对速度或使用的任何限制均由美国军方决定,并最终由[美国总统]决定”。
Musk - writing on X - had been responding to pleas from Ukrainian officials to restore connectivity, including from President Volodymyr Zelensky who told UK media: "I hope that it's a mistake, maybe huge technical problem.
马斯克在 X 上撰文,一直在回应乌克兰官员恢复连接的请求,其中包括总统弗拉基米尔·泽伦斯基 (Volodymyr Zelensky),他对英国媒体表示:“我希望这是一个错误,也许是巨大的技术问题。
I don't know, but we are asking to... switch (it) on." Starlink, which is owned by Musk's SpaceX, restricted speed limits on Tuesday night to 100mph (160km/h), meaning any weapons that travelled faster than that lost connectivity to the network.
我不知道,但我们要求……打开它。” 马斯克旗下的 SpaceX 公司旗下的 Starlink 在周二晚上将速度限制为 100 英里/小时(160 公里/小时),这意味着任何飞行速度超过该速度的武器都会失去与网络的连接。
It had been partially restored by Wednesday evening, Ukraine's former defence minister Mykhailo Fedorov said.
乌克兰前国防部长米哈伊洛·费多罗夫表示,到周三晚上,该设施已部分恢复。
"Removing Starshield's speed limit entirely is now critical for Ukraine's defense," he wrote on X, thanking Elon Musk and asking for his "continued support".
他在 X 上写道:“完全取消星盾的速度限制现在对乌克兰的国防至关重要。”他感谢埃隆·马斯克并请求他“继续支持”。
About an hour later, Musk replied to that post, defending his company's involvement.
大约一个小时后,马斯克回复了该帖子,为他的公司的参与辩护。
"Starshield systems are owned and controlled by the US government.
“星盾系统由美国政府拥有和控制。
Any limits on speed or usage are decided by the US military and ultimately POTUS," he wrote. Musk added that Starlink is for "civilian or defensive activities and cannot be used for offensive military action, as doing so would be inappropriate for a commercial company".
对速度或使用的任何限制均由美国军方决定,并最终由美国总统决定,”他写道。 马斯克补充说,星链用于“民用或防御活动,不能用于进攻性军事行动,因为这样做对于商业公司来说是不合适的”。
While both companies are owned by Musk's SpaceX, Starlink is a civilian service that uses satellites in low Earth orbit to provide internet access, particularly in remote areas, while Starshield is designed for government and military use.
虽然这两家公司都属于马斯克旗下的 SpaceX 公司,但 Starlink 是一项民用服务,利用近地轨道卫星提供互联网接入,特别是在偏远地区,而 Starshield 则专为政府和军事用途而设计。
The restrictions on Tuesday night came as Russia launched deadly attacks against Ukraine, that killed several people in Kyiv, officials said, and hit communications and energy facilities used by Ukraine's military.
官员称,周二晚间,俄罗斯对乌克兰发动致命袭击,造成基辅数人死亡,并袭击了乌克兰军方使用的通讯和能源设施。
At least 600,000 people across Ukraine were left without electricity, and residents said they received no warning of incoming drones before they hit.
乌克兰各地至少有 60 万人断电,居民表示,他们在无人机袭击之前没有收到任何警告。
"It is clear that this action cannot be a coincidence and is related to the current political situation, Zelensky's adviser Serhiy Beskrestnov wrote on Telegram on Wednesday morning.
泽连斯基的顾问谢尔盖·别斯克雷斯诺夫周三上午在 Telegram 上写道:“很明显,这一行动不可能是巧合,而是与当前的政治局势有关。”

观看:我们对俄罗斯连夜袭击乌克兰的了解 随着乌克兰继续袭击俄罗斯能源设施,美国总统唐纳德·特朗普对乌克兰越来越失望。
Zelensky has said that the US threatened to restrict intelligence sharing if he did not sign up to Trump's energy ceasefire, but on Tuesday, Trump denied this.
泽伦斯基曾表示,如果他不签署特朗普的能源停火协议,美国威胁将限制情报共享,但特朗普周二否认了这一点。
Speaking during a visit to London on Wednesday, President Zelensky agreed that he had felt betrayed after the US made a deal with Russia to import 300,000 tonnes of its of diesel.
泽连斯基总统周三访问伦敦时表示,在美国与俄罗斯达成协议进口 30 万吨俄罗斯柴油后,他感到自己被背叛了。
"Really yes... but it's a little bit more complicated than just my emotions or my feelings," Zelensky said, when asked by UK journalist Piers Morgan if he felt betrayed.
当英国记者皮尔斯·摩根问他是否感到被背叛时,泽伦斯基说道:“确实是的……但这比我的情绪或感受要复杂一点。”
