Ukraine has partnered with Nokia and satellite maker ICEYE as it looks for an alternative to Starlink, CNBC reports. The announcement adds a concrete partnership to the search for backup connectivity, but the supplied report excerpt gives no terms or detail on what each partner will provide.
Why it mattersThat leaves the shape of the alternative unclear, which is rather important when the point is to have one.
