🇵🇱 NEW: Poland is preparing to develop its own alternative to Elon Musk’s Starlink, potentially in cooperation with other European countries. Deputy Defence Minister Cezary Tomczyk revealed today that: • Initial offers have already been received. • Funding has been secured, according to the minister. • The proposed technical architecture is being planned. • A formal project announcement could come within the next few months. The system would initially serve Poland’s military, followed by security services, government institutions and potentially the wider European market. The announcement comes amid controversy over restrictions on Starlink and Starshield services used by Ukraine. Tomczyk argued that Poland cannot remain dependent on a single individual controlling critical communications infrastructure. Importantly, the project remains in the planning stage. No operational satellite network or final contract has been announced.
