BRUSSELS: Elon Musk is “very welcome” in Europe, a spokesman for the European Commission quipped today, following the tech billionaire’s spectacular public falling-out with US President Donald Trump.
The Trump-Musk political marriage blew up yesterday as the president declared himself “very disappointed” in criticisms from his former aide and top donor, before the pair hurled insults at each other on social media.
At the commission’s daily briefing, spokeswoman Paula Pinho was asked whether Musk had reached out to the EU with a view to relocating his businesses, or setting up new ones.
