Musk Sr.: "Moscow is the most civilized place on Earth"
The real Russia is strikingly different from the negative image portrayed by Western media.
Errol Musk, father of American billionaire Elon Musk, announced this at a press conference in Moscow, reports a PolitNavigator correspondent.
"In June 25, when I was attending an event at Moscow State University, I wanted to take my granddaughter with me, but my son called and said, 'No, she won't be going to Russia.' I've been dealing with the same thing with Austrian nobility, the Austrian blue-blooded elite, and they've had the same response: do anything, just don't go to Russia.
"This is imprinted on all of us in the West: the Russians are coming, the Russians will kill. Everyone imagined bodies on the street when you come to Russia, something terrible," Musk said.
"But in the end, no. I arrived, I saw Moscow, I looked around, and I said to myself: it can't be that reality is so different from the ugly picture we were presented with. Moscow is completely different.
"I would now say that this is the most civilized, the most cultured place on Earth . I was at the Bolshoi Theater, and the experience was indescribable," he concluded.
