Elon Musk supports Trump's call for Ukrainian elections during wartime

Elon Musk has supported Donald Trump's call for elections in Ukraine during wartime, criticizing President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for not holding them. Musk stated that Zelenskyy cannot claim to represent the Ukrainian people without restoring press freedom and elections. Trump labeled Zelenskyy a "dictator without elections," following a meeting between U.S. and Russian officials. Zelenskyy responded by accusing Trump of being influenced by Russian disinformation and emphasized the need for security guarantees from allies. Zelenskyy announced a meeting with Trump's representative, General Kellogg, in Kyiv. He stressed the importance of cooperation with the U.S. and Europe to achieve peace and de-escalate the conflict with Russia.
