It would be strange if he still needed more after he scammed Tesla investors into giving him a $50 Bn USD bonus, setting a new record for pay disparity between CEO and average worker.

Not even the article you didn't read implies SpaceX is selling these to Russia. This tech falls under US sanctions to Russia. Starlink is not enabled there. Hell, it's not even enabled on Crimea as was demonstrated by the failed Ukrainian drone boat assault there.
