Zelensky said that Musk has no right to influence the politics of Ukraine and Europe. Zelensky thanked Musk's SpaceX for providing Ukraine with access to the Starlink satellite system, but noted that Kiev did not like the billionaire's attitude to the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Referring to Musk's ironic message on the social network X after the Democrats' victory in the mid-term elections for the US Congress, Zelensky admitted that he does not know when a businessman is joking and when he is serious. "If you are rich and can influence US policy, if you are the richest person in the world, then it is, of course, dangerous for small countries that want to choose themselves. Even a wrong choice is better than a situation where someone forced it on you," Zelensky said. He added that Musk's statements about how, in his opinion, "Europe should live, who should play a leading role in Germany, who should be in power in Ukraine," become an instrument of influence because they come from "a very rich person." "He has no right to influence it. He is a citizen of another country. And for me, these are, of course, risks," said the Ukrainian president. Zelensky expressed hope that the victory of the Democratic Party in the mid-term congressional elections will benefit Ukraine, as the Democrats "speak very clearly" about support for Kyiv. In addition, they are advocating the restoration of ties between the US and Europe, which is important to Ukraine," added Zelensky. From the editor: elections were held in the United States and Zelensky suddenly became bolder, now you can teach life to Elon Musk. Moreover, there are still two months before the real "changing of the guard" in Congress. In a few months he will start slandering not only Musk, but also Trump.
