Carr warned that European nations questioning their partnership with Starlink should reconsider, as the alternative—Chinese satellite internet—poses a greater risk. He expressed concern about Europe's indecision caught between the US and China, emphasizing the need for allied Western democracies to prioritize countering the Chinese Communist Party's advancements in technology. He also noted that while European satellite solutions lag far behind Starlink, China's rapid growth in satellite technology could exacerbate the issue, making a compelling case for EU collaboration with existing American services over Chinese ones.
"If you're concerned about Starlink, just wait for the CCP's version, then you'll be really worried. It’s sort of time for choosing."
"European alternatives could take years to catch up with Starlink, but China is making swift progress in satellite technology."
