Shafaqna English- Leaders of Germany, France, Norway, and the UK condemned Elon Musk for meddling in politics, and elections.
UK’s Prime Minister Keir Starmer slammed on Monday (06 Jan 2025) those “spreading lies and misinformation” following days of incendiary posts by Musk on his X platform over historical sex offenses against children in northern England.
Musk, who is set for a role in Trump’s administration, then accused the center-left Labour Leader of being “deeply complicit in the mass rapes” and “utterly despicable”
European leaders including French President Emmanuel Macron have also weighed in against Musk.
He said the SpaceX boss was “directly intervening in elections”, including in Germany where Chancellor Olaf Scholz has condemned the Tesla boss for backing a far-right party.
Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store said Monday he found it “worrying” that someone with so much wealth and influence was getting involved in the politics of European countries.
Much of Musk’s focus in recent days has been on Britain and historical scandals involving grooming gangs that first emerged during Starmer’s 2008-2013 tenure as the country’s top prosecutor.
Musk surprised many people in Britain on Sunday when he appeared to U-turn on his support for Brexit cheerleader Nigel Farage, saying his anti-immigration Reform party “needs a new leader”.
