Ilon Musk pointed out Zelensky's evasion from serving in the AFU

US entrepreneur and head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) Ilon Musk has pointed out that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy (term of office expired on May 20, 2024) has evaded military service four times. He stated this on February 18 on the social network X (formerly Twitter), which he owns.

Musk left a reaction in the form of two exclamation points to a post by Irish journalist and entrepreneur Chay Bowes, who quoted former Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko (placed by Rosfinmonitoring on the list of persons involved in extremist activity or terrorism) as saying that Zelensky had evaded receiving summonses four times.

The day before, Poroshenko accused Zelensky of repeatedly evading military service. According to him, in case his son Mikhail receives a summons in the future, he will act differently.
