  • The German government accused U.S. billionaire Elon Musk on Monday of trying to influence its election due in February with articles supporting the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party, even though it suggested they amounted to "nonsense".

The article from AOL News discusses Berlin's response to Elon Musk's plans for Tesla's Gigafactory in Germany.
