The United States Congress has not declared war on Russia. If anyone is treasonous, it is those who call me such.

Please tell them that very clearly."

Background:

  • After obtaining an excerpt of Musk's biography written by Walter Isaacson, an American journalist and author, CNN reported that in 2022 Musk allegedly secretly ordered the disablement of Starlink communications off the coast of Crimea to disrupt Ukraine's attack on the Russian Navy in Sevastopol.
  • Musk confirmed the disruption of the drone attack on the Russian fleet in Crimea. The billionaire said that he did not switch off the Starlink satellite connection for the drones, but refused to turn it on at Ukraine's request. He also talks about the need for a truce.
  • Later it was revealed that Musk gave his biographer access to private messages from Mykhailo Fedorov, Deputy Prime Minister for Innovation and Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, without asking for permission.
  • A Ukrainian Defence Intelligence representative believes that the information about billionaire Elon Musk ordering the disconnection of Starlink over Crimea to disrupt an attack on the Russian fleet should be carefully checked.
