Germany Accuses Elon Musk of Trying to Influence February Election in Favor of AfD Party
Dec 30, 2024, 02:02 PM
The German government has accused Elon Musk of attempting to influence the country's upcoming federal election scheduled for late February. The accusation stems from Musk's repeated endorsements of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, including a recent opinion piece in the German newspaper Welt where he described the AfD as 'the last spark of hope' for Germany. German government spokesperson Christiane Hoffmann stated that Musk's comments amount to a 'voting recommendation' for a party under surveillance by Germany's domestic intelligence agency due to suspicions of being far-right. Despite acknowledging Musk's right to free speech, Hoffmann emphasized that German elections are decided by voters at the polls and are a domestic matter.
