The Kremlin believes Elon Musk’s invitation to Vladimir Putin to chat in the popular Clubhouse app was a ‘misunderstanding’ after the billionaire never responded to a follow-up query, spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.
“There was apparently some kind of misunderstanding,” Peskov told reporters. “This case is probably exhausted.”
The CEO of Tesla Inc. and SpaceX tweeted on February 14 in English and Russian on the Kremlin’s official Twitter account, asking if the Russian president wanted to join him in a conversation about Clubhouse.
At that time, Peskov calls it ‘undoubtedly a very interesting offer’, but says the Kremlin needs more details. However, there was no clear follow-up on Twitter.
