I hope everybody comes to their senses and stop buying US military equipment. We have good stuff and people smart enough to fill the gaps with self developed products

That would be Eutelsat, but it is smaller in scale (at the moment) and therefore more expensive. It's also said to be less userfriendly, but that should be possible to fix.

And the tone he took with Sikorski when the latter reminded him that Poland is paying for a lot of Starlinks in Ukraine once more show their attitude to their (former) allies and why we need to cut those people loose and develop - or mass-deploy - self-reliant technologies like Eutelsat as quickly as we can. (I don't have the exact wording on hand but it was something akin to "Silence, little man...")
