  • The spokeswoman for the Spanish government, Pilar Alegria, emphasizes that social media platforms, such as Elon Musk's X, should be "completely neutral" and must not interfere in the internal affairs of countries.

The article from MSN discusses how Elon Musk, the CEO of Tesla and SpaceX, has stirred European politics with his comments on social media, particularly regarding Spain's political landscape. Musk's remarks came in the context of Spain's upcoming elections and the potential influence of far-right parties. Spanish Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares responded by urging Musk to maintain neutrality, emphasizing that Spain values its democratic process and does not welcome external interference. Musk's involvement has sparked a debate about the role of influential tech moguls in international politics, with critics arguing that his comments could sway public opinion or be seen as an endorsement of certain political ideologies. This situation highlights the growing intersection between technology leaders and global political dynamics, raising questions about the responsibilities of such figures in the public sphere.
