U.S. billionaire Elon Musk is under scrutiny due to allegations from Germany that it is trying to interfere in their upcoming federal elections. Controversy emerged after he publicly endorsed the right-wing AfD party on his social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter. He referred to it as "Germany's last hope for a brighter future."
Allegations of Election Interference
A German government spokesperson expressed concern over Musk's comments, emphasizing that while he has the right to voice his opinion, there are boundaries to ideological influence. Musk defended his stance, citing significant investments in Germany as justification for his remarks.

Musk’s History of Political Endorsements
This is not the first time that Musk has been accused of this. He had earlier supported Donald Trump in the U.S. presidential elections and had, according to reports, contributed financially to the campaign of Trump.
