German Chancellor Olaf Scholtz said sharply about the position of American entrepreneur Ilona Mask, accusing him of supporting far -right political forces, which, according to Chancellor, poses a threat to democracy in Europe. This was reported by Politico .
Scholz stressed that Ilon Musk is actively supporting far -right in many European countries, including the United Kingdom, Germany and other countries. According to the Chancellor, such actions of the entrepreneur bear the risk for the democratic development of Europe.
"He supports far -right everywhere in Europe ... This threatens our community, and it must be criticized," Solz emphasized.
Chancellor noted that although Musk is entitled to his own political position and freedom of speech, his actions are "absolutely unacceptable", especially if they are related to business interests or personal political beliefs.
Earlier, Musk openly expressed the support of the Alternative for Germany, which will participate in early elections in February. In addition, he supported the British right -wing party "UK reforms".
Musk is also known for its commitment to Donald Trump's politics, which, according to Politico , has strengthened his position in the immediate surroundings of the newly elected US President. It is suggested that Musk can start funding the far -right party in Europe, which is concerned about EU leaders.
