Musk remains Tesla boss: less money for politics in the future!

Doha, Katar - Elon Musk plans to continue his role as CEO von Tesla in the coming years. During an interview in Qatar, he confirmed that he would like to be at the top of the company even in five years. Despite the current challenges with which Tesla is confronted, Musk humorously expressed that his security is always a risk, even if he could possibly die one day. In order to secure himself against critical investors, he has expressed the desire to own more Tesla shares.

Lately, Tesla was faced with a decline in deliveries, which was partly interpreted as a result of Musk's political views and his role during the Trump government. Even though Musk put the decline into perspective and stated that sales in Europe weakened, they were strong in other regions. He recognized that Tesla won customers on the right side of the political spectrum.

criticism and loss of trust

In a significant turn, Musk announced that he wants to "significantly" reduce his political editions in the future. He explained this during a video during an economic forum in Doha. He announced that at the moment he saw no reason to invest in political projects. Last year Musk donated over $ 250 million for Trump's election campaign and was temporarily a close confidante of the President.

future orientation

Musk, who is currently considered the richest person in the world, has also reduced his activities in the government department for state efficiency (Doge), in which he has been active in the White House in January since Trump's re -entry. Despite the associated challenges, Musk assured that Tesla runs well and presented himself strongly outside of Europe.

The decision to reduce his financial engagement in politics could also be an attempt to rehabilitate Tesla's image after many buyers turned away from the brand. Musk confirmed that he would only invest money in politics again if he sees a valid reason for it. With regard to his support for political currents, he also expressed his support for the AfD in Germany.

Overall, it remains to be seen how these developments will influence the future business of Tesla, while Musk continues to stick to his vision for the company.
