„War and conflict are spreading like wildfire under this (not so new) law of the strongest being pushed by countries like the US or Israel. In response, many governments around the world appear to be aligning with this trend, choosing to increase their #militaryspending (...).

... If you oppose war and #militarization and believe in alternatives based in #peace and #justice, join us (...).“

Starlink Militarization and Its Impact on Global Strategic Stability - Interpret: China

In this piece, two researchers from PLA-affiliated National University of Defense Technology argue that Starlink will negatively impact global stability, in light of its clear military applications, increased risks of accidents and collisions in space, and SpaceX's close relationship with the U.S. military. The authors foresee a worsening security dilemma as other countries react to broad U.S. deployment of Starlink, thereby impacting strategic stability in space.
