Musk's father arrived in Moscow (pictures from the Internet)
On June 7, 2025, Musk's father Erol Musk arrived in Moscow, Russia, and the incident sparked a lot of speculation.
According to public information, he visited to attend the "Future 2050 International Forum" held from June 9 to 10. He will deliver a speech at this forum focusing on cutting-edge issues such as space, Mars exploration and future technology. The guests also included Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov, etc., which was a grand event of international exchange full of technology and a sense of futurism.
However, things are not that simple.
On June 6, Dmitry Novikov, the first vice chairman of the Russian State Duma International Affairs Commission, made the whole incident confusing. He said that if Musk needs political asylum due to conflict with Trump, Russia is "willing to provide it."
This statement is like opening a door full of imagination, making people unable to help but have many speculations about the situation and future direction of the Musk family.
Recalling the conflict between Musk and Trump, it can be said to be quite fierce.
Trump threatened to cut government subsidies and contracts for Musk-related companies, and this move will hit Tesla a huge blow.

According to reliable data, this threat directly caused Tesla's market value to evaporate by more than US$150 billion. For enterprises, government subsidies and contracts are like nutrients and boosters for growth. Losing these will undoubtedly result in a heavy blow. Musk's business empire is facing unprecedented challenges under such threats.
In this context, Musk's father's trip to Moscow was interpreted by some as "exploring the way forward" for his son.
From a business and political perspective, this speculation is not unfounded. If Musk is at a very disadvantage in the confrontation with Trump, finding new development space and political asylum becomes a possible choice.
Russia has strong strength and rich experience in space exploration and other fields, and has many aspects to Musk's commercial interests.
This event reflects the complex intertwined relationship between business and politics today.
In today's globalization, the development of a company not only depends on market, technology and other factors, but also has a close connection with the political environment. This incident in the Musk family is like a magnifying glass, allowing us to see more clearly the opportunities and challenges faced by businesses and entrepreneurs under this complex relationship.

This incident reflects the opportunities and challenges faced by enterprises under the complex interweaving of business and politics.
