Austria’s Greens are calling for an entry ban for Elon Musk

It’s not entirely clear what Elon Musk yes drink Donald Trumps took the oath. A greeting from the bottom of my heart? A real Hitler salute? Or a deliberate play on Nazi symbols?

For Austria Greens It’s relatively clear what happened there. They are now demanding consequences for the richest man in the world: “Elon Musk has overreached,” says Lukas Hammer spokesman for right-wing extremism. Not only does he support right-wing extremists and interfere in election campaigns in Europe, but now “he has allegedly stretched his right arm twice in the Hitler salute. This is an unparalleled scandal and is neither compatible with our values ​​in Austria nor with European values.”

“Danger to public order”

Although Musk has not announced any visits to Austria in the near future, Hammer has now sent a broadcast asking the Foreign and Interior Ministries to consider refusing entry to him – as a signal. “Elon Musk is a threat to public order. We expect the authorities in Austria to assume their responsibility and exhaust all legal options to deny him entry.” As Hitler’s birthplace, Austria must “send a clear signal”
