\n\nUS President Donald Trump has defended billionaire Elon Musk over Ukraine, describing him as a “very good person” and insisting that the technology entrepreneur would not engage in any wrongdoing related to the country.
\n\n“Elon Musk is a very good person. He is not going to do anything wrong regarding Ukraine,” Trump said.
\n\nThe president reiterated his confidence in Musk, adding: “Elon will never do anything wrong. He is a fair person.”
\n\nTrump did not elaborate on the specific Ukraine-related issue prompting his remarks or identify any particular allegation against Musk.
\n\nMusk, the chief executive of SpaceX and owner of the social media platform X, has featured prominently in discussions about the war in Ukraine, particularly over satellite communications, military connectivity and the role of private technology companies in international conflicts.
\n\nSpaceX’s Starlink satellite internet service has been important to Ukraine’s communications infrastructure since Russia launched its full-scale invasion in February 2022. The system has been used by Ukrainian military personnel and civilians to maintain connectivity in areas where conventional communications infrastructure has been damaged or disrupted.
