Elon Musk is once again causing a stir with his favorite medium, Twitter. There he presented a supposed plan to end the Ukraine war. Among others, Andriy Melnyk reacted harshly – and even President Volodymyr Zelenskyy intervened.
US billionaire Elon Musk outlined a supposed solution for ending the Russian-Ukrainian war on Twitter.
Accordingly, in the four areas now annexed by the Kremlin in southern and eastern Ukraine, Cherson, Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhia will be reconciled under the supervision of the United Nations. Russia must leave the territories if the people want it. Ukraine becomes neutral. The Crimean Peninsula, annexed by Russia in 2014, is to be added to Moscow. At the same time, Crimea’s water supply would be guaranteed through the canal from the Dnipro River.
In contrast to a nuclear war, the scenario is “very likely”. The proposal received a lot of ridicule on Twitter – and violent comments. Among other things, the Ukrainian ambassador to Germany, Andryj Melnky, who was about to be replaced, replied: “Fuck off”. And added a little later: “The only result is that no Ukrainian will ever buy your Tesla shit.”
And even President Volodmyr Zelenskyy intervened. He created a poll entitled: Which Elon Musk do you prefer?” He added “One who supports Ukraine” and “One who supports Russia” as possible answers.
The advisor to the presidential office, Mykhailo Podoliak, responded to Musk’s proposal with a counter-offer. “There is a better suggestion,” wrote on Twitter. Accordingly, Ukraine will completely liberate its territory, including the “annexed Crimea”. Russia will then be completely demilitarized, will have to give up its nuclear weapons and “can no longer threaten anyone”. The Russian war crimes are brought before an international tribunal.
