Elon Musk, chief adviser to US President Polish Foreign Minister Radoslav Sikorsky, described “the little man”, while dozens of demonstrators gathered at the Tesla cars exhibition in Lisbon on Sunday, to protest against the support of the far -right party mask in Europe.
In a post on the X -Sunday platform, Musk emphasized that the space internet system “Starlink” provided by the company “SpaceX” is the backbone of the Ukrainian army.
He pointed out that stopping the service will lead to the collapse of all front lines.
Musk reiterated his position on the Ukrainian war, considering that Kiev would inevitably lose her confrontation with Russia, calling on her to abandon the war.
For his part, Sikorsky responded to Musk’s comments, recalling that Poland paid approximately $ 50 million annually to provide Starlink’s service to Ukraine.
The Polish minister indicated that Warsaw may resort to searching for alternatives if it is proven that “SpaceX” is an unreliable resource.
In turn, Musk replied to Sikorsky’s comments by saying, “Shut up, little man, you pay a very small part of the cost, and nothing can replace Starlink.”
Tesla Province
In a related context, dozens of demonstrators gathered at the Tesla Cars Exhibition on Sunday, to protest against the support of the CEO of Elon Musk, the right -wing party in Europe, while Portugal is heading towards possible early elections.
Musk uses the X platform to promote the right -wing parties and personalities in Germany, Britain, Italy and Romania, and has not interfered in Portugal, as the far -right Chega Party climbed to become the third largest force in Parliament.
In the capital, Lisbon, the protesters lifted banners from US President Donald Trump and his billionaire consultant, and some were written in some of them, “They boycotted Tesla.”
“It is time for peoples all over the world to stand, confront Trump’s leadership and promote an extremist right mask in Europe,” said Nuno Raymondo, 54, a Lisbon doctor.
He added, “Otherwise, history will return to the thirties of the 20th century in Europe, may not be (Mask) able to influence enough in the upcoming elections in Portugal, but with the amount of money he has can do so step by step.”
Portugal slipped into a new political crisis after the right -wing government, headed by Prime Minister Luis Montenegro on Thursday, agreed to conduct confidence voting in the minority government, which was formed a year ago, which endangers at the risk of dismissal.
Portuguese President Marcelo Ribello de Souza said that the new elections – which will be the third in 3 years – could take place on May 11 or on the 18th of the same month.
The popularity of the right -right alliance in opinion polls is approximately 30%, a little ahead of the Socialists, with Chatiga occupying third place by 18%.
Mask’s political positions apparently affect Tesla, whose sales in Europe fell 45% last January compared to the previous year, while sales of its competitors jumped by more than 37%, according to the European Car Manufacturers Association.
