Donald Trump put billionaire Elon Musk on the line with President Zelensky when the Ukrainian leader called the president-elect, a Ukrainian official says.
President-elect Donald Trump put billionaire Elon Musk on the line with President Volodymyr Zelensky when the Ukrainian leader called to congratulate the incoming U.S. president, according to a Ukrainian official with direct knowledge of the phone call. The person, who was not authorized to comment on the matter publicly, confirmed that Zelensky and Musk spoke during the call with Trump, but that Musk did not appear to be on the line for the entire conversation on Wednesday.
Trump has promised to swiftly end the war and suggested that Kyiv should agree to cede some territory to Moscow in return for peace, a condition Zelensky has rejected. It was under Trump that the United States first sent weapons to Ukraine in its fight against Russia, in 2017. Those Javelin anti-tank missiles were crucial to Ukraine’s initial ability to fend off the full-scale invasion in 2022.
