Fri Feb 07 10:15:32 UTC 2025: ## Billionaire Elon Musk Accused of Global Far-Right Campaign

**London/Berlin/New York** – Billionaire Elon Musk is facing accusations of orchestrating a global campaign to bolster far-right movements, leveraging his considerable influence and wealth to promote extremist figures and policies worldwide. Critics cite his actions in the US, UK, and Germany as evidence of a concerted effort to replicate the success of the far-right in America on an international scale.

In the US, Musk’s alleged “Nazi salute” at President Trump’s inauguration and his calls for the dismantling of the US Agency for International Development are highlighted as examples of his destructive influence. His leadership of the “Department of Government Efficiency” and implementation of austerity measures further fuel concerns.

Musk’s alleged interference extends to the UK, where he has repeatedly promoted far-right figures like Tommy Robinson, sharing and promoting Robinson’s libelous documentary “Silenced,” which falsely accused a Syrian schoolboy of assault. This action, critics argue, is part of a broader strategy to exploit anti-immigration sentiment and influence UK politics. Musk’s attacks on Prime Minister Keir Starmer, accusing him of complicity in a “rape of Britain,” further demonstrate this alleged strategy. His calls for King Charles III to dissolve Parliament are also cited.

In Germany, Musk’s public endorsement of the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, including hosting a conversation with its leader Alice Weidel and addressing an AfD rally via video link, has raised serious concerns. He has described the AfD as Germany’s “last spark of hope,” echoing his support for restrictive immigration policies.

Musk’s influence reportedly extends beyond Europe. His admiration for Argentinian President Javier Milei, whose austerity policies inspired Musk’s own, and his meeting with El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele, known for his harsh anti-gang measures, are cited as further evidence of his global reach. Reports suggest the Trump administration is considering using Bukele’s prisons to house US criminals. Further, a recent poll suggests nearly 45% of Poles would vote for a candidate endorsed by Musk, despite his lack of direct involvement in Polish politics.

While the immediate impact of Musk’s actions remains to be seen, the scale of his alleged interference in multiple countries’ internal affairs has raised significant alarm. The article concludes with a call for concerted pushback against Musk’s alleged global far-right campaign.
