Russia is having fun at the the heated feud between U.S. President Donald Trump and Space X CEO billionaire Elon Musk, as they sarcastically offer to mediate peace deal.
Russian Security Council Vice President Dmitry Medvedev took to X to extend the tongue-in-cheek offer, saying Moscow is ‘ready to facilitate a peace deal’ between the two men ‘for a reasonable fee.’
The Senior Russian official added that Russia would even be willing to ‘accept Starlink shares as payment.’
‘Don’t fight, guys!’ Medvedev added, referring to the high-profile clash that has erupted between Trump and Musk over proposed federal spending cuts.
Elon Musk – Donald Trump feud
Musk had labeled Trump’s signature bill a ‘disgusting abomination’ and called for it to be scrapped.
In response, Trump expressed disappointment in Musk, claiming he had supported him in the past.
Musk later countered that he would have favored Trump’s election, intensifying the drama playing out on the global stage.
Just days ago, the US President gifted Musk a golden key during a White House event honouring his work at DOGE. But relations soured quickly following Musk’s public rebuke and accusations.
Dmitry Novikov, first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee on International Affairs, said Russia is willing to offer Musk political asylum if needed.
‘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 told state news agency Tass.
Russian senator Dmitry Rogozin echoed the sentiment.
‘Elon, don’t be upset! If you encounter insurmountable problems in the US, come to us and become one of us,’ Rogozin tweeted. ‘Here you will find reliable comrades and complete freedom of technical creativity.’
