Elon Musk made a sharp statement against the UN!

One of the most influential and controversial entrepreneurs in the world, American billionaire Elon Musk, has once again found himself in the spotlight of the world community. This time, he has come out against the United Nations (UN) with his sharp criticism and even called for a complete cessation of financial support for this international organization.

On his personal page on the X social network, Elon Musk responded sharply to a video of a statement by UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres. In the video, Antonio Guterres noted that social networks and digital platforms are often used to mislead people, incite hatred among them, and divide society, and said that the international community should take this problem seriously.

Apparently, these comments by Guterres did not please Elon Musk, and the American billionaire responded to this with a sharp statement on his page: "Defund the UN!" This caused a lot of controversy and debate.

Recall that Elon Musk previously supervised the activities of the Special Office for Government Efficiency (DOGE) in the administration of US President Donald Trump. This indicates that he has significant experience in international financial decisions.

In fact, the US position towards the UN and other international organizations has been changing dramatically recently. In early May, the Trump administration presented a draft federal budget for the 2026 fiscal year. According to it, it was proposed to suspend the US's membership fees to the UN, UNESCO and the World Health Organization (WHO).

At the same time, the US president is also given the authority to continue financing these international organizations at his discretion. For these purposes, it is planned to create a special "strategic investment" fund in the amount of $ 2.9 billion.

In addition, the US side is trying to reduce spending by another $ 1.6 billion by refusing to finance various UN peacekeeping missions. In particular, there is a lot of criticism that these missions are ineffective.

Musk's statement is consistent with the financial measures proposed by the US government. However, this statement is causing mixed reactions in the world community.

On the one hand, many observers have been constantly criticizing the ineffectiveness of the UN and other international organizations. On the other hand, the international community has also recognized the important role of organizations like the UN in solving global problems.

Well, only time will tell whether Musk's sharp call will come true or whether this is just another sensational speech. How the UN and the international community will respond remains an open question. Read 'Zamin' on Telegram!
