Costin Andries wrote that Elon Musk claimed that Volodymyr Zelensky should leave because he did not want to capitulate and hand Ukraine over to Russia. According to Andries, Musk linked Zelensky's refusal to the organization of elections and the risk that he might lose and be investigated, claiming that the Ukrainian leader was sending soldiers to death to avoid prison. Andries responded that Zelensky had declared himself willing to organize elections if Vladimir Putin accepted a 60-day ceasefire so that voters would not be threatened by bombings and that soldiers and Ukrainians who had left the country could vote. He added that Putin did not want to stop the attacks and that Musk knew elections could not be organized under bombardments. Andries also reported that Musk had said Starshield was controlled by Trump's Pentagon and did not belong to him, while Starlink was his company and he could decide what to do with it. According to Andries, Musk had used dismissive language towards Ukrainians who asked him to act in a certain way and stated that he had no obligations towards them, even though the services were paid for. Referring to a post by Musk from 2023, Andries said that he had called for equal solidarity with Russian soldiers in Ukraine and asked only Ukrainians not to send soldiers to the front, without asking Putin to stop the attacks or to refrain from sending troops. Andries argued that Ukraine was achieving successes on the front, reclaiming territories occupied by Russia and destroying refineries, depots, servers, and other elements of Russian infrastructure. He stated that for this reason, Ukraine had to be stopped immediately, by any means, and described Trump and Musk as tools in this endeavor. #Ucraina #Musk #Politică (translated)
