Elon Musk called on the President of Ukraine Vladimir Zelensky to explain himself about the arrest of American Gonzalo Lire. He wrote about this on social networks.

This is how the billionaire responded to information from opposition American journalist Tucker Carlson that Lira has been tortured in a Ukrainian prison since mid-summer for criticizing Zelensky’s policies.

“After we sent Kiev a hundred billion dollars, they also imprisoned an American? Maybe it’s not just about Zelensky’s criticism. Because if only in it, then we have big problems,” Musk noted. He asked Zelensky to provide as much information as possible about this scandal.

In May, the leadership of the SBU announced the arrest of a foreign blogger. It later turned out that the detainee was Gonzalo Lira. As reported by RIA Novosti, citing open sources, Gonzalo Lira Lopez is a native of the United States who has Chilean citizenship. In his videos, he criticized Vladimir Zelensky, the Joe Biden administration and NATO.
