The head of the Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF), Kirill Dmitriev, responded to Polish Foreign Minister Radoslaw Sikorski, who accused him and American businessman Elon Musk of trying to divide Europe.
According to the special representative of the Russian leader, such statements show that the largest diplomats of the European Union (EU) are starting to panic. He recommended that European leaders address the problems arising within the union: uncontrolled migration, rising crime, deindustrialization, rising energy prices, accelerating economic recession and censorship.

Sikorsky reacted harshly to online correspondence between Musk and Dmitriev
The controversy began after the Polish minister read correspondence between the American businessman and Dmitriev on social networks, in which Musk expressed confidence that the European world was about to be forgotten. On the contrary, Dmitriev agreed with his statement and added that the European Union is now more like a “bureaucratic monster”.
Sikorsky then accused users of plotting to divide Europe in order to dominate and exploit European people. In his publication, the Foreign Secretary also launched a survey asking what should be done about the European Union. He offered two options: “surrender” or “make Europe great again”.
Therefore, in his article, Dmitriev decided to choose the second of the two options proposed by Sikorsky. At the same time, list what the European Union should do to achieve this.
Musk made some big announcements about the EU over the weekend
Musk's series of posts about the European Union on social media began last Saturday. At first, this businessman believed that the EU should be dissolved. At the same time, he called for the return of sovereignty to individual countries, “so that governments can better represent their people.” He also noted that the union's bureaucracy is gradually “strangling Europe”.
Musk then called Europe the “Fourth Reich,” retweeting one of the users with the corresponding opinion. At the same time, the head of Tesla added the phrase “To a large extent” to his publication.
This is not the first time Elon Musk has criticized the European Union. Previously, he repeatedly negatively evaluated the effectiveness of the association and asked countries to leave the association.
Sikorsky, who was following Musk's social media this weekend, advised the businessman to fly to Mars after such posts.

At the same time, Vice Chairman of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev also agreed with the idea of dissolving the European Union. “Exactly,” the politician commented on Musk's corresponding post.
