A Ukrainian presidential aide criticized Twitter owner Elon Musk on Sunday for the billionaire’s “simple magic solutions”, citing ideas put forth by Musk about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and moderation of Twitter content.
Mykhailo Podolyak listed “exchanging foreign territories for an illusory peace” and “opening all private accounts because freedom of expression has to be total” as examples of such suggestions.
“(Elon Musk) prefers so-called simple magic solutions,” Podolyak wrote on Twitter, an apparent reference to plans by Musk, a self-described defender of free speech, to reform Twitter, which he took over on Oct. 27.
Twitter representatives did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Ukraine has had a rocky relationship with Musk, the world’s richest man, since the start of the Russian invasion on Feb. 24.
Musk was praised in the early days of the war for providing thousands of Starlink satellite internet devices, made by SpaceX, to Ukraine for free.
However, the good relationship ran into difficulties in October, when Musk voiced support for peace terms that had been rejected by Kiev.
