Berlin says Elon Musk trying to exert influence over German election

U.S. billionaire Elon Musk is trying to exert influence over the German election scheduled for Feb. 23, a government spokesperson said Monday.

"It is indeed the case that Elon Musk is trying to influence the federal election," with X posts and an opinion piece he wrote backing the right-wing Alternative for Germany (AfD) over the weekend, she said.

Musk was free to express his opinion, the spokesperson added. "After all, freedom of opinion also covers the greatest nonsense."
