“Elon Musk acted ugly. He gives expensive gifts from the heart, and then remotely turns them off. You probably remember his gift, the Cybertruck, which we equipped with a machine gun and sent to the special military operation. Recently, Musk turned the Cybertruck remotely. This is unmanly. I had to tow the iron horse away. How can this be, Elon? Is that how things are done?”
On August 17, Ramzan Kadyrov published a video on his Telegram channel showing him driving Tesla’s Cybertruck vehicle in Grozny, the capital of Chechnya.
In turn, the US-based entrepreneur denied reports saying that he had gifted the vehicle to the Chechen president. Musk also called an X user a “retard” for believing that he could give a Cybertruck to the Chechen president.
