Please try again later {{ /verifyErrors }} Ukraine’s ambassador to Germany has fired back at Elon Musk after the Tesla boss tried out a Twitter poll to end the Russian invasion of Ukraine. And Ukraine’s president Volodymyr Zelensky, even followed up with a Twitter poll of his own, asking his followers which Elon Musk they preferred, “One who supports Ukraine” or “One who supports Russia.” The billionaire was attacked by Mr Melnyk after setting out a string of specific peace proposals to end the conflict, which has now stretched into its eighth month. Btw a good plumber is better than Musk’s secondhand opinions on illegally occupied territories of a foreign nation.” Lithuania’s President Gitanas Nauseda joined in the criticism, claiming on Twitter that if “someone tries to steal the wheels of your Tesla, it doesn’t make them legal owner of the car or of the wheels. Two days after Russia’s unprovoked attack on the country in February, Mykhailo Fedorov, Ukraine’s vice prime minister tweeted directly at Mr Musk, urging him to send Starlink equipment.
