Trump prevents Mask from participating in space decisions

US President Donald Trump said that the billionaire Elon Musk will not be allowed to participate in any space -related decisions issued by the US government, when he was asked about the possibility of conflict of interests regarding a mask in the midst of his efforts to reduce the government’s spending.

“We will not allow Elon to participate in anything related to space,” Trump told reporters.

The White House stated earlier that Musk will exempt itself from any conflict between his various business interests and his efforts to reduce the costs of the federal government through the Ministry of Governmental Efficiency, which he leads.

The White House explained that the role of Musk in the Trump administration is an employee of the White House and a senior consultant of the president, and that he is not an employee of the Ministry of Government efficiency, as the White House said that Musk does not have the decision -making authority.

The Ministry of Governmental efficiency has begun to check the work of federal agencies since Trump began his second presidential term last month, and to grant Mask responsible for eliminating waste of tunnels in the context of unprecedented government reform that includes a collective chapter for thousands of employees.

Trump said of Musk: “Illon for me is my homeland, so you can consider him an employee, you can consider him as a consultant, you will call you what you want, but he is my country.”
