German Chancellor Olaf Scholz has condemned Tesla Inc TSLA CEO Elon Musk's support for Germany's far-right party, a close ally of U.S. President-elect Trump.
At a campaign rally in Berlin on the 5th local time, Mr. Scholz said that Mr. Musk is not the only country supporting far-right parties, and that he rejects them.
He also added that while social democrats are not new to confronting rich businessmen, the algorithms and methods Musk uses are new.
Musk has repeatedly expressed support for the far-right party Alternative for Germany through his social media X, which he owns, and recently called Chancellor Scholz an idiot in a German daily article.
Scholz also dismissed reports that he was planning a meeting with Russian President Putin as untrue.
However, he added that he remains interested in a diplomatic solution to the war in Ukraine and does not rule out a phone call with Putin.
