Chechen leader Ramazan Kadyrov claims that Tesla top manager Elon Musk remotely turned off the Cybertruck he was given as a gift, and calls this act ugly. Kadyrov complained about the American billionaire on his Telegram channel.
“You probably remember his gift – the Cybertruck, which we equipped with a machine gun and sent to the SVO. The machine coped with combat missions perfectly. Demonstrated maneuverability and good protection for the crew. So, recently Musk remotely turned off the Cybertruck. This is not manly. We had to tow the iron horse. How is that possible, Elon? Is that how it is done?” the head of Chechnya wrote.
Ramazan Kadyrov announced that Musk had given him the Cybertruck in mid-August and published a video on his Telegram channel showing him driving a vehicle similar to a Tesla car.
Elon Musk claims he gave nothing to Kadyrov. “Are you seriously that stupid that you can believe that I gave a Cybertruck to a Russian general? Another example of the lies of the mainstream media,” Musk was quoted as saying by Politico.
