Tesla and SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has made a big promise to Cubans and Iranians. He said that he will request the American government to allow Starlink in both of these countries because they are sanctioned. First, some background on what Starlink is. Starlink is an internet service that uses satellites, and it has been very important around the world. For example, the island of Tonga, which was hit by a volcano, got Starlink from Musk, which majorly helped them. Musk also sent starlink to Ukraine after the war with Russia started. Starlink was so effective in Ukraine that the Russian government was enraged. If Starlink is approved in Cuba and Iran, it will be very helpful to the millions of people in both countries.
