ELON MUSK HAVING SLEEPLESS NIGHTS ON UKRAINE - RUSSIA WAR

Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, stated on Sunday that while the Russian invasion of Ukraine rages on, there is a greater likelihood that the world could witness a nuclear war. Musk responded to a tweet in which he was named by a user who appreciated the billionaire's proposal to de-escalate the Russian crisis in Ukraine by saying, "Nuclear war probability is rising rapidly,"


While the billionaire received open criticism from Ukrainian politicians and supporters of Ukraine, MIT professor and machine learning expert Max Tegmark recently praised him. Musk even tweeted earlier in the day that he has "been up all night trying to think of any possible way to de-escalate this war."


Musk also claimed that the win of Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is "unlikely" if Putin decides to order full mobilisation because Russia's population is three times more than Ukraine's. This is yet another argument for de-escalation.


"Starlink provided a decisive battlefield advantage," the billionaire said on Oct. 9.


Starlink has given Ukrainians the opportunity to counter Russian propaganda by providing a real-time account of this conflict. The service is also proving to be a valuable strategic tool by enabling Ukrainian authorities to communicate without worrying about sabotage or the possibility of being overheard by the Russians.


Putin has already stated that Moscow will defend itself using "all possible methods." He has consistently stated that he will respond to threats that harm the existence of his country, even if he hasn't claimed his nation will launch a nuclear attack.
