Elon Musk, Owner of X, Backs AfD as "Only" Hope for Germany Ahead of Election
Dec 20, 2024, 12:00 PM
Elon Musk, owner of social media platform X, has publicly endorsed Germany's far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party ahead of federal elections in two months, stating that "Only the AfD can save Germany." AfD leader Alice Weidel welcomed Musk's support, expressing gratitude. The endorsement has drawn reactions from German politicians, including Chancellor Olaf Scholz, who remarked that freedom of opinion applies to billionaires, even if they say things that are not correct. Finance Minister Christian Lindner also addressed Musk directly in response. The AfD, led by Weidel, is under surveillance by German security services for suspected extremism. Authorities have expressed concerns about foreign interference and disinformation campaigns influencing the election.
