Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX, recently took part in a phone call between Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and US President-elect Donald Trump, following Trump’s election victory. According to a senior Ukrainian official, Musk was present during the call and even exchanged a few words with Zelenskyy.
The claim, initially reported by Axios, was confirmed by an anonymous senior official from Ukraine’s presidency. Another high-ranking Ukrainian source disclosed that Musk was handed the phone by Trump during the conversation.
The source revealed that Musk and Zelenskyy had a brief interaction. Details of their exchange remain undisclosed, but the involvement of a prominent tech billionaire in such a significant diplomatic call has raised eyebrows.
Musk’s presence during the call suggests an expanding role in global affairs. Whether his participation will influence future US-Ukraine relations remains to be seen.
