Elon Musk’s Dad PRAISES Putin in Moscow, Errol Musk Calls Putin ‘Impressive’, SLAMS U.S. Media

Errol Musk, father of billionaire Elon Musk, has sparked controversy by praising Russian President Vladimir Putin and defending his trip to Moscow for the Future Forum 2050. Despite warnings from family members, Musk said he admired Putin’s resilience and dismissed Western media portrayals of Russia as “complete nonsense.” The statement, widely reported by Russian state media, comes amid strained U.S.-Russia relations and has raised questions about the Musk family’s public image. Errol's remarks add unexpected fuel to already complex geopolitical and media narratives. #ErrolMusk #ElonMusk #RussiaVisit #PutinPraise #FutureForum2050 #MuskControversy #RussiaUSRelations #WesternMedia #Geopolitics #Putin #RussianPolitics #MuskFamily #RussiaTrip #MediaNarratives #GlobalTensions #MoscowEvent #LeadershipCommentary #PropagandaWatch #USRussiaTensions #PutinAdmiration #RussianForum #ControversialVisit #MuskInRussia #ElonFamily #WorldPolitics #CurrentAffairs #TrendingNews #DiplomacyCrisis #InternationalRelations #PutinSpeech #ErrolInMoscow Also Read Russia May Attack THIS European Country After Ukraine :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russia-may-attack-this-european-country-after-ukraine-4176043.html?ref=DMDesc Mike Johnson Dismisses Elon Musk's Criticism of Republican Tax and Budget Bill :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mike-johnson-downplays-musks-influence-on-republican-tax-bill-011-4175853.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Musk Against Supporting Democrats: 'Serious Consequences If He Does That' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-musk-against-supporting-democrats-serious-consequences-if-he-does-that-4175377.html?ref=DMDesc

‘He’s a MURDERER....’ Zelensky BLASTS Trump In A FIERY Response To His ‘Kid’s Brawl’ Comment [Video]

‘He’s a MURDERER....’ Zelensky BLASTS Trump In A FIERY Response To His ‘Kid’s Brawl’ Comment

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky tore into Donald Trump’s latest analogy calling the Russia-Ukraine war “a fight between two kids.” Rejecting the playground comparison, Zelensky thundered, “Putin didn’t come to play—he came to Kill children.” The chilling rebuttal came as global leaders urged U.S. action. Trump, however, signaled a hands-off stance, drawing criticism. The Kremlin labeled the war existential. With tensions high, Zelensky’s emotional retort reframes the war as a deadly invasion — not a childish scuffle — and challenges the West’s moral responsibility to act. #zelensky #trumpcomment #putinwar #ukrainewar #playgroundanalogy #russiaukraineconflict #trumpputin #ukraineunderattack #zelenskyresponds #putinismurderer #whitehouseremark #globalleadership #kremlinstatement #usforeignpolicy #handsandoffapproach #merzstatement #warcommentbacklash #politicalrhetoric #ukrainecrisis #childrenskilled Also Read Trump vs Musk: Billionaire Battle Turns Ugly With Epstein Taunt, SpaceX Heat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-vs-musk-billionaire-battle-turns-ugly-with-epstein-taunt-spacex-heat-4173783.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Announces Travel Ban Affecting 12 Countries, Set To Go Into Effect Monday :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-announces-travel-ban-affecting-12-countries-set-to-go-into-effect-monday-4172715.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.346~HT.336~

“Handed Putin Reason to Bomb”:Trump slams Ukraine after Russia's Deadly Attack Over Nuclear Airbases

A deadly new chapter in the Ukraine-Russia war is unfolding. After Ukraine launched strikes on Russian nuclear bases, President Vladimir Putin vowed swift retaliation. The Kremlin has already responded with missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian targets, killing civilians and escalating the war dramatically. In a stunning statement, U.S. President Donald Trump blamed Ukraine for provoking Moscow, saying Zelensky "gave Putin a reason to strike." Trump also questioned the reliability of American intelligence, suggesting he's being fed a filtered version of the truth. As Operation Spiderweb intensifies and diplomatic channels break down, fears of a full-scale East-West confrontation are growing.

‘Trump BETRAYED Us, Diverted 20,000 Missiles’ | Zelensky UNLEASHES on Trump

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky revealed in a TV interview that the Trump administration diverted 20,000 anti-drone missiles, originally approved under Biden, away from Ukraine to the Middle East. Zelensky said Ukraine relied on these precision-guided weapons to counter Shaheed drone strikes, including a record 472 drones on June 1. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth cited urgency but skipped a major Ukraine meeting. Trump later resumed aid after Kyiv agreed to a ceasefire, sparking backlash over his stance to “let the war continue.” #Zelensky #Trump #UkraineAid #DroneWar #MiddleEast #MilitaryAid #ShaheedDrones #TrumpReturns #AntiDroneMissiles #UkraineCrisis #PeteHegseth #USUkraine #WarPolitics #CeasefireDeal #BreakingNews #UkraineWar #DefenseControversy #BidenVsTrump #WeaponRedirection #UkraineDefense #MilitaryShift #Geopolitics #TrumpPolicy #RussiaUkraineWar #USForeignPolicy #DronesInWarfare #ZelenskyReveals #MissileDiversion #AIDFreeze #TrumpControversy Also Read Protests Intensify In Los Angeles After Trump Deploys Hundreds Of National Guard Troops :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/protests-intensify-in-los-angeles-after-trump-deploys-hundreds-of-national-guard-troops-4175915.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Warns Musk Against Supporting Democrats: 'Serious Consequences If He Does That' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-warns-musk-against-supporting-democrats-serious-consequences-if-he-does-that-4175377.html?ref=DMDesc Trump vs Musk: Billionaire Battle Turns Ugly With Epstein Taunt, SpaceX Heat :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-vs-musk-billionaire-battle-turns-ugly-with-epstein-taunt-spacex-heat-4173783.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~GR.122~HT.408~

‘Zelensky or NATO?’ Russia Questions On Who Blocked Return Of Fallen Ukrainian Soldiers' Bodies [Video]

‘Zelensky or NATO?’ Russia Questions On Who Blocked Return Of Fallen Ukrainian Soldiers' Bodies

Russia has raised serious questions after Ukraine allegedly refused to receive over 6,000 fallen soldiers’ bodies offered in a humanitarian gesture. Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zakharova asked if Zelensky personally made the call—or if NATO intervened. Russia published 97 names to aid grieving families while accusing Kiev of hiding losses to avoid payouts. Ukraine denies stalling but hasn’t provided a new date. As talks in Istanbul stall, anger grows over the silence. Families remain in limbo, and the political blame game intensifies. #Zelensky #NATO #UkraineWar #RussiaUkraine #FallenSoldiers #WarCasualties #BodyExchange #Zakharova #Kiev #MilitaryLosses #RussiaFM #UkraineRefuses #NATOInvolvement #UkraineNews #HumanitarianCrisis #PrisonerExchange #WarUpdate #IstanbulTalks #UkraineConflict #MilitaryCoverup Also Read Trump Proposes Allowing Ukraine and Russia to Fight Before Seeking Peace :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-ukraine-russia-fight-for-a-while-011-4173761.html?ref=DMDesc Ukrainian Ex-DJ Named As Alleged 'Mastermind' Of Russia Airbase Drone Attacks :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukrainian-ex-dj-named-as-alleged-mastermind-of-russia-airbase-drone-attacks-4171927.html?ref=DMDesc Ukraine Hits Russia's Crimea Bridge Using 1,100 Kilograms Of Explosives :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/ukraine-hits-russias-crimea-bridge-using-1-100-kilograms-of-explosives-4171479.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~
