The confrontation between Russia and Ukraine continues to shake European countries. And not only. Elon Musk is keen to point out that he is very concerned about the latest developments in events. Indeed, Putin would have no qualms about using nuclear weapons if he were forced to do so in order to defend Crimea. “If Russia is faced with the choice of losing Crimea or using nuclear weapons on the battlefield, it will choose the latter solution.” Elon Musk, CEO of Tesla, wrote on Twitter.
“We have already sanctioned/cut off Russia in every way possible, so what do they still have to lose? If we attack Russia with nuclear weapons, they will bomb us and then we will have World War III,” Musk wrote again. “Whether we like it or not, Crimea is absolutely seen by Russia as a fundamental part of Russia. Crimea is also of paramount importance to Russia’s national security because it is its naval base to the south. From their point of view, losing Crimea is like the US losing Hawaii and Pearl Harbor,” Musk added.
