The Kremlin believes that Elon Musk’s invitation to Vladimir Putin to chat in the popular Clubhouse app was a “misunderstanding” after the billionaire never responded to a later consultation, spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.
“Apparently, there was some kind of misunderstanding,” Peskov told reporters. “This issue is probably out of print.”
The CEO of Tesla Inc. and SpaceX on February 14 tweeted in English and Russian to the Kremlin’s official Twitter account, asking if the Russian president wanted to join him for a conversation at the Clubhouse.
At the time, Peskov he called it “undoubtedly a very interesting offer”, but said the Kremlin needed more details. There was no apparent follow-up on Twitter, however.
