This past week, Kyiv’s defense forces shot down 28 drones sent as part of Russia’s attack on the Kharkiv region, and some Starlink-branded equipment was seen among the wreckage for the first time.

        History didn’t start in 2021. All Ukraine had to do was not try to join NATO or use the military against Ukrainian civilians that voted to separate from Ukraine.
