Amid escalating tensions between US President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk, former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev has offered to mediate a “peace deal” between them – a role assumed by the Republican leader amid the war between Russia and Ukraine. According to Mr Dmitry Medvedev, Moscow is ready to become a mediator for a “reasonable fee”.
They will accept Starlink shares as payment, he said.
“We are ready to facilitate the conclusion of a peace deal between D and E for a reasonable fee and to accept Starlink shares as payment. Don’t fight, guys,” the former Russian President wrote in a post on X.
To this, the Tesla CEO responded with a laughing emoji.
Mr Medvedev’s comment comes a day after Russian lawmaker Dmitry Novikov has suggested that Musk could seek political asylum in Russia. “I think that Musk has a completely different game, that he will not need any political asylum, although, if he did, Russia, of course, could provide it,” Mr Novikov told the Russian News Agency TASS.
