Elon Musk, in support of the far-right German party AfD

Billionaire Elon Musk, who is expected to join President-elect Donald Trump's administration as a foreign adviser, weighed in on Germany's election campaign on Friday, calling the far-right Alternative for Germany (AfD) party the country's savior. .

The AfD is in second place in the polls, making it difficult for either centre-right or centre-left parties to win a majority in the election, but Germany's main parties, the majority of the centre, have vowed not to accept support. of the AfD at the national level.

Europe's most powerful country is expected to vote on February 23 after the ouster of the centre-left coalition government led by Chancellor Olaf Scholz.

"Only the AfD can save Germany," Mr Musk wrote on his X social media platform.

Elon Musk, the world's richest person, has previously expressed support for other anti-immigration parties across Europe.

The German government said it had seen what Mr Musk wrote, but declined to comment further at the regular press conference.

Mr Musk also republished a message from German right-wing activist Naomi Seibt criticizing Friedrich Merz, the chancellor candidate of the conservatives, who are leading in the polls.

Matthias Miersch, general secretary of Chancellor Scholz's Social Democrats, told the website 't-online' that Germany did not need foreign influences or "Trumpism".

Mr Musk expressed support for the AfD last year when he criticized the German government's handling of illegal immigration.

Last month, Mr Musk called for the dismissal of Italian judges who questioned the legality of government measures to prevent irregular immigration.

This week Nigel Farage, the leader of Britain's right-wing UK Reform party and a friend of President-elect Trump, released a photo of himself meeting Mr Musk at Mr Trump's Florida mansion. He met with Mr. Musk to secure financial support./ VOA
