Graham noted that Musk "should understand the facts" of the conflict in Ukraine.

“Most of Ukraine clearly wants to be part of Ukraine, but in some eastern parts of the territory the majority of the population is Russian, and they prefer Russia,” Musk said.

He added that in any conflict zone it is necessary to support the will of the people living there.

Previously, Musk suggested that Crimea remain part of Russia, and in the regions recently annexed to Russia, referendums were held again under the supervision of the UN.

He also warned that the escalation in Ukraine would cause significant damage to the country.

Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova called Musk's plan for Ukraine part of the public discussion, noting that the West began to ask questions about what was happening.
