Elon Musk faces criticism across Europe for his political endorsements and comments, particularly regarding the far-right AfD in Germany. Leaders like Spain's Pedro Sánchez and France's Emmanuel Macron accuse Musk of inflicting a reactionary movement that threatens democracy. Musk's attacks on leaders including UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer heighten tensions, and concerns grow over the far-right's resurgence in Europe. Some European Union members call for regulatory action against his perceived interference, testing governmental response amid fears of increased populism and misinformation.
