The department told the RIA Novosti news agency about this.
The interlocutor of the agency clarified that the Pentagon is considering various options for maintaining the operation of satellite communications on the territory of Ukraine.
Providing funds is one of them.
Earlier, SpaceX notified the US Department of Defense that it was no longer able to pay for the operation of the Starlink satellite communications system in Ukraine.
Musk later said he would continue to fund Starlink satellite communications in Ukraine.
