A Russian official said the American billionaire Elon Musk could be offered political asylum in Russia over his fierce dispute with Donald Trump
Dmitry Novikov, first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, made the comments to Russian state news outlet TASS.
“I think that Musk has a completely different game, [so] he will not need any political asylum, although if he did, Russia, of course, could provide it,” Novikov said, in remarks translated from Russian.
Musk and Trump, ostensibly political allies over cuts to federal spending, publicly clashed on June 5 in a series of exchanges across social media and in comments to reporters.
On what do your base that Russia already have all the US secrets? I see several people on this talking point and I would really like something backing this claim.
This (as it stands right now) is not going to drive a wedge between Russia and Trump That’s the reason it’s a lower official saying it. Deniability. But let’s see how it develops from here.
Anyways I agree with you that it’s always better when the right is fighting each other instead of anybody else.
