Mykhailo Podolyak lists 'exchang(ing) foreign territories for an illusory peace' and 'open(ing) all private accounts because freedom of speech has to be total' as examples of such suggestions.
KYIV, Ukraine – A top Ukrainian presidential aide criticized Twitter owner Elon Musk on Sunday for the billionaire’s “magical simple solutions,” citing ideas put forward by Musk on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and Twitter content moderation.
“ prefers so-called magical ‘simple solutions’,” Podolyak wrote on Twitter, an apparent reference to self-described free speech advocate Musk’s plans to reform Twitter, which he took over on October 27, as well as a tweet in which he called for Ukraine to give up the Russian-occupied Crimean peninsula in exchange for peace.Ukraine has had a complicated relationship with Musk, the world’s richest man, since the start of the Russian invasion on February 24.
The billionaire called for Crimea, annexed by Moscow in 2014, to be declared formally part of Russia, and for UN-supervised referendums on whether Russia should stay or leave to be held in other occupied territories.
