The billionaire made a big bet by challenging Putin to a fight.
Users considered his proposal in favor of Ukraine risky and crazy.
Others criticized Elon Musk for getting directly involved in the war.
Elon Musk did it again and with a single tweet he put the eyes of the world on his fight with Russian President Valdimir Putin, whom he challenged to a duel to free Ukraine from the invasion and end the war.
The founder of SpaceX and Tesla made a controversial comment in the official account of the Kremlin and revolutionized social networks in minutes, taking the war to the digital environment as well.
“I hereby challenge Vladimir Putin to single combat.” “What is at stake is Ukraine”, wrote the tycoon using the Russian alphabet to write Putin’s name.
Вы согласны на этот бой? @KremlinRussia_E

During the war, which began on February 24 with the Russian invasion, Musk took an active role in the course of military attacks, so much so that he even provided Starlink space internet equipment in defense of Ukraine.
As he is characterized, he used his Twitter to directly mock Russian officials on social networks and now sparks controversy among his followers for the alleged reading he has made of the character of the Russian leader.
“If Putin could so easily humiliate the West, then he would accept the challenge, but he won’t.”the businessman replied to a user who assured that the president would win any fight.
All morning Elon Musk has made a series of publications that have given rise to the scrutiny of his followers, as phrases without much meaning were present on his social wall.
“By the pricking of my thumbs (because of the itching in my thumbs). “Something wicked is coming” he wrote an hour earlier, with references to Macbeth.
Elon Musk’s publications have already caused problems in the past, even for the companies in which he is involved, because his opinion makes shares, for example Tesla, rise or fall depending on the situation.
Elon Musk vs. Vladimir Putin: users take sides
