A senior Ukrainian official confirmed to Fox News that Elon Musk participated in a call on Wednesday between President-elect Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, during which Zelenskyy offered his congratulations to Trump on his victory.
Musk’s presence on this initial call between Trump and Zelenskyy signals his potential influence in the incoming administration.
Although specific details about Musk’s role remain undisclosed, Axios reported that he reaffirmed his commitment to supporting Ukraine through his Starlink satellite network, which has been vital for Ukraine’s wartime communications.
Throughout his campaign, Trump expressed caution about continued U.S. aid to Ukraine and advocated for a swift resolution to the ongoing conflict with Russia, raising questions in Europe about future U.S. involvement.
During the 25-minute call, Trump assured Zelenskyy of American support, although he did not outline specific policies or military assistance. Axios broke the news of Musk’s involvement in the call, though Musk has yet to comment on it.
