Elon Musk in Trump 2.0: For the past few months, the growing closeness between the world's richest man Elon Musk and former US President Donald Trump is not hidden from anyone. Musk openly supported Trump in the 2024 US election, and his influence was clearly seen during the election campaign. Now that Donald Trump has won the election, it is being speculated that Trump will give Elon Musk an important position in his regime. However, what this position will be, and how important Musk's role will be, is not yet completely clear.

Elon Musk's role in Trump administration

After winning the election, Trump had already indicated that Elon Musk could play an important role in his administration. On Wednesday, Donald Trump gave the world an opportunity to understand what Musk's role could be in the administration. Although it is not clear what Musk's position will be, some events have indicated that Musk may get a strong role.

Trump-Musk talks on Ukraine

After Trump won the election, Elon Musk and Trump were together at the Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida. During this time, Donald Trump spoke to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on the phone. Interestingly, Trump handed over his phone to Musk, and Musk spoke directly to Zelensky. This incident is important in many ways, as it gives a glimpse of Musk's role in the Trump administration.

Trump administration's stance with Ukraine

During the conversation with the Ukrainian President, Trump said after talking to Musk that he would continue his commitment to support Ukraine. During the 2024 election, Trump had said that his aim was not to start a war, but to help end it. However, it was not clear what changes Trump would make in America's policy towards Ukraine.

Musk's Starlink and help to Ukraine

During the call, Elon Musk assured President Zelensky that he would continue to assist Ukraine through his Starlink satellite network. Since Russia's invasion in 2022, Musk's Starlink system has proven to be a vital tool for the Ukrainian military. This satellite network provided data and communication facilities in war zones, especially in areas where Ukrainian telephone services were destroyed due to the Russian invasion.

Future of partnership between Trump and Musk

Given the growing partnership between Elon Musk and Donald Trump, it can be speculated that Musk may be given a high position in the Trump administration in the coming times. Given Musk's interest in technology, space exploration, and global politics, he may be appointed to a technical or defense-related department. Musk has already publicly praised the work done during Trump's reign several times, and has actively worked to support him.

Final Conclusion

What kind of role Elon Musk will play in the Trump administration will be clear in the times to come, but his growing role and growing association with Trump indicate that his contribution can be significant. Meanwhile, Musk's role in supporting Ukraine has been confirmed, which further increases his importance in global politics. Now it will be interesting to see what new changes come with Musk's association with Trump's administration and what will be his view on global issues.
