“Now is the time for 'Boring Company' to start building the Putin-Trump Tunnel connecting Russia and the US, Asia, Europe, and America.” On the 11th local time, several Russian media noticed that Russia's presidential special representative responsible for foreign investment and economic cooperation, Kirill Dmitriev, shouted the above remarks to American entrepreneur and Tesla CEO Elon Musk on social media platform X. The “Putin-Trump Tunnel” mentioned by Dmitriev is a major project he proposed last year. “Boring Company” is an American infrastructure and tunnel construction company under Musk. It was founded in December 2016. The origin of this incident was the turmoil caused by US President Trump's “replace the President of Ukraine” remarks. On the 10th, Trump accused Ukrainian President Zelensky of attacking Russian refineries despite US warnings, causing US diesel prices to rise, and Ukraine's unwillingness to end the Russian-Ukrainian conflict. Furthermore, the US side reached an agreement with Russia to ease sanctions against Russia in exchange for Russian sales of diesel to foreign countries and to calm US domestic diesel prices. Zelensky, who felt “betrayed,” criticized this as a “weak decision.” All of this has sparked Trump's dissatisfaction and said, “I recommend that Ukraine be replaced by a new leader who can reach an agreement.” On social media X, Musk also strongly supported Trump, saying “Zelensky went too far.” Just after Musk's message was sent, Dmitriev posted the above shouting post about Musk, which attracted the attention of many Russian media.
