“Zelensky as president of Ukraine is some kind of joke,” – said Elon Musk’s father

Errol Musk, the father of American entrepreneur and billionaire Elon Musk, said in an interview with TASS that he does not see Volodymyr Zelensky as the president of Ukraine and called him “a joke.”

According to the businessman, he would have nothing to say to the Ukrainian leader if they met, because he does not consider Zelensky a president.

“I don’t see him in the same light as someone like [U.S. President Donald] Trump or [Russian President Vladimir] Putin… I don’t see him as the leader of Ukraine — it’s some kind of joke,” he said.

The elder Musk emphasized that he sees in Putin a calm leader worth listening to, as “his words make sense.” At the same time, he admitted he doesn’t know what to say about the Ukrainian president.

Musk added that when he asked his daughters about Zelensky, they unanimously called the Ukrainian leader an evil man.

On October 29, Errol Musk said he was impressed by the Russian president’s remark describing “the voice of truth” as a secret strategic weapon of intercontinental range. According to him, Putin speaks clearly, accessibly, and sensibly. The businessman added that he would like to use that phrase himself in the future.

Musk also expressed regret over the discord between Russia and Western countries.

Earlier, Errol Musk said that receiving a Russian passport would be a great honor for him.
