Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:TSLA) CEO Elon Musk says he looks forward to visiting Ukraine, presumably after the war is over.
Zelensky confirmed via Twitter that his spoke with Musk, and thanked him for making the Starlink system available to Ukraine. He went on to say that the two discussed working on "space projects" after the fighting was over.
Musk on Saturday responded to those who want him to block access to Russian news outlets on Starlink, saying that he would only do so "at gunpoint."
The Tesla chief has been keeping a close eye on the developing conflict, and the resulting spike in energy costs. He noted that even though it may have a negative impact on Tesla, it's time to immediately increase the output of oil and gas.
Latest Developments: In a follow-up tweet on Sunday morning, Zelensky reiterated his call for NATO to declare a no-fly zone over Ukraine.
Such a declaration would mean that if a Russian aircraft flew into the NATO military no-fly zone, then NATO forces would have to take action against that aircraft, including shooting the plane down. That kind of measure would likely be viewed by the Russians as an act of war by NATO and would potentially escalate the conflict.
