Zelensky said Elon Musk "has no right" to influence who should be in power in Ukraine and Germany, this is how he addressed the relevant statements of the American entrepreneur. "He has no right to influence these things. He is a citizen of another country. And in my opinion it certainly involves risks. After all, we already have examples," Zelensky said in an interview with ZDF. According to him, Musk's wealth and ability to influence US policy are dangerous for small countries and countries that want to "choose for themselves who they want to see in power." "Even a wrong choice is better than someone forcing it on you. I believe that the influence of Elon Musk - his statements in posts and views on how Europe should live, who should play a leading role in Germany, who should be in power in Ukraine - all these are not just words. When these things come from a very rich person, it's already a kind of influence. And he has no right to exercise such influence," Zelensky noted. Recall that in October, Musk called on Zelensky to resign, stating that he did not want the war to end for fear of losing power.
