In a response to a post from Musk mentioning turning off the system, Sikorski implied that any threats to shut down Starlink would result in a search for other suppliers.

Rubio quickly dismissed the claims that Musk would shut down the system and urged Sikorski to be grateful.

The trio went back and forth in an exchange of posts on X that ended with Musk calling Sikorski "small man".

Secretary of State Marco Rubio and tech billionaire Elon Musk have had a contentious exchange with Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski, in a series of X posts on Sunday over the use of Musk's Starlink satellite system in Ukraine.

"Starlinks for Ukraine are paid for by the Polish Digitization Ministry at the cost of about $50 million per year," Sikorski wrote.
