According to him, if Musk ordered Starlink to be slowed down in Ukraine, "this could be a violation of the law."
We have to conduct an investigation. We must summon witnesses, bring them to court, place them under oath, and get to the bottom of the matter. Because this is a very, very serious issue. It cannot be swept under the rug

According to sources cited by The Wall Street Journal, SpaceX founder Elon Musk personally ordered restrictions on the operation of the Starshield satellite system, which is used for Ukraine’s military needs.
