President Zelensky has hit back at Elon Musk after he set up a Twitter poll on annexed areas of Ukraine.

The Tesla billionaire took to Twitter to weigh in on the row on how to end Russia’s war with Ukraine.

The 51-year-old suggested the United Nations should be in charge of elections in the four occupied regions that Russia has annexed after their recent illegal referendums.

Western governments and leaders across the world deemed the votes as illegal after they were criticised by Kyiv for being illegitimate.

Elon Musk wrote: “Russia leaves if that is will of the people.”

The US mogul asked his Twitter to vote on his idea of whether Crimea, which was seized by Moscow in 2014, could be recognised as Russia – if water supply to Crimea was guaranteed and Ukraine remained neutral.
