In a surprising turn of events, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has challenged Tesla CEO Elon Musk to a fight, which Musk accepted. Musk responded to the video with, "I accept," and further engaged with another user suggesting a cage fight, reminiscent of the much-publicized but unrealized Musk vs. Zuckerberg bout. I accept — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 31, 2024I’m coming for you Maduro! Adding to the international dimension, Russian President Vladimir Putin congratulated Maduro on what has been described as a rigged election win. Meanwhile, the U.S. government has accused Maduro and 14 current and former Venezuelan officials of narco-terrorism, corruption, and drug trafficking.
