WHEN: Fri Oct 16, 2026 · afternoon CEST/Berlin — Zelenskyy in Brussels told reporters Starshield/Starlink military access is NOT fully restored. Quote gist: "Have they returned to the previous speed limits? No. But is it coming back now? Yes." He called the speed cut a "very dangerous and unpleasant surprise."
