Elon Musk and the Venezuelan president are set to clash as Musk accepts the offer to fight, igniting global intrigue.
The CEO of SpaceX and Tesla has been accused by Nicolas Maduro of attempting to disturb the tranquility and stability in the South American nation.
Elon Musk, the CEO of SpaceX and Tesla, has accepted Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro’s challenge to a physical confrontation in response to fraud allegations leveled against him.
After securing his third term in presidential elections, the leader of a country located in South America labeled Musk as his “new archenemy” on Monday. The politician alleged that the billionaire was seeking to undermine peace and stability within their nation.
In an address made on national television, Maduro challenged billionaire Musk to a physical altercation in response to his accusations of “major election fraud”.
In a post on X (previously known as Twitter) last Wednesday, entrepreneur Mario Nawfal posed the question: “Did anyone include Maduro vs Elon Fight in their 2024 Bingo Card?” To this query, Musk responded with just two words – “I agree.”
The owner of X stated in a follow-up response that Maduro would retreat.
Nawfal disseminated another post wherein he claimed that “Elon has agreed to take on Maduro’s challenge… WHICH SIDE WOULD EMERGE VICTORIOUS?”
Musk replied yet again, stating that if he emerges victorious, the current dictator of Venezuela would have to step down from his position. Conversely, if Musk loses, he has agreed to provide him with a complimentary voyage to Mars.
The CEO of SpaceX has a track record of provoking notable personalities to engage in physical altercations. The wealthy entrepreneur has consistently asserted his ability to emerge victorious in a brawl with Mark Zuckerberg – the co-founder and fellow magnate behind Facebook.
After the South American country’s presidential election results were posted by the businessman, Musk and Venezuelan leader engaged in a dispute. Maduro was declared as Venezuela’s winner of the election on Sunday by The National Electoral Council (CNE), revealing that he had obtained over 51% of votes with more than 80% ballots counted, while his main rival Edmundo Gonzales received only 44%.
Following the demise of President Hugo Chavez in 2013, Maduro has been serving his third uninterrupted term as president for six years. During his speech after winning the election again he made fun of opposition parties who repeatedly accused him of electoral misconduct and stated that Venezuela would now experience tranquility and steadiness under his leadership.
