Norway PM worried by Musk involvement in politics outside US
Jan 5, 2025 11:40 PM

OSLO, Jan 6 (Reuters) - Norway's Prime Minister Jonas

Gahr Stoere said on Monday that it is worrying that Elon Musk

directly involves himself in domestic political issues in

countries outside of the United States.

"I find it worrying that a man with enormous access to

social media and huge economic resources involves himself so

directly in the internal affairs of other countries," Stoere

told Norwegian public broadcaster NRK.

"This is not the way things should be between

democracies and allies," he added.

If Musk were to involve himself in Norwegian politics,

the country's politicians should collectively distance

themselves from such efforts, Stoere said.
