Tesla founder Musk has recently begun to rub hot spots, but the world's richest man with outstanding business skills obviously does not have much praise for international political issues, and his attempt to make a fuss about the Ukraine crisis has been regarded as a joke by the international community.
Wanting to "single out" with Putin, the Russian side's response was bright
According to media reports, recently, Musk directly "sent a letter" to Putin in English, Russian and Ukrainian languages on Twitter, and he wrote on his social media: "I challenge Vladimir Putin here, we will gamble on Ukraine in a one-on-one duel." Then he tweeted provocatively: "Do you dare to fight?" Musk also said in response to netizens' questions that he will definitely take it seriously, and if Putin fights, he will be honored.
Obviously, this is a typical hot-spot behavior and has no substantive significance in resolving the current Ukrainian issue. For this kind of beam-jumping clown-style showmanship, the Russian side did not care at all, Putin's spokesman Peskov directly said on the 16th: "I have not paid attention to this matter, we have not been on Twitter for a long time." ”
From the attitude of the two sides in handling this matter, we can see the great difference between high and low. Obviously, Musk also knows that Putin is simply unable to accept his so-called "head-to-head" challenge, but in this way, he has once again attracted a lot of traffic, which is naturally helpful for him to further enhance his influence and commercial value, and the more the Russian side responds, the bigger the stage of his performance.
And the Russian side may also understand Musk's wishful thinking, directly came to a cold treatment, from the beginning to cut off its desire to continue to rub the heat on this issue.
In this master move, the Russian side is obviously superior.
Rubbing hot spots has become the standard for some Western figures
After the outbreak of the Ukraine crisis, the practices of some countries in Europe and the United States are really surprising. In the name of supporting Ukraine, some people and institutions are doing all kinds of things to attract attention and benefit for themselves. There have been farces of so-called sanctions imposed by some international animal agencies on Russian cats and dogs.
In essence, Musk's "single-handed" Putin behavior launched on social media this time is essentially no substantive difference from the previous sanctions against Russian cats and dogs, and its common point is that they are all ridiculous and do not have any substantive help to solve the problem.
