After winning the US elections, Donald Trump spoke on the phone with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday. News agency AFP quoted a Ukrainian official on Friday as saying that businessman Elon Musk also participated in that conversation.

After this Trump handed over the phone to Musk after which he had a conversation with Zelensky. Zelensky thanked Musk for providing Internet to Ukraine. During this, Musk told Zelensky that he would continue to help Ukraine through his Starlink satellite.

Trump has criticized Zelensky, called him a great salesman In his first address after receiving the Republican Party's nomination for president, Trump criticized Zelensky and described him as a 'brilliant salesman'. Trump said that instead of spending American taxpayers' money on Ukraine, it should be spent on the well-being of American citizens.
Donald Trump had said, 'Zelensky is probably the best salesman of all the leaders ever born. Every time he comes to America he leaves with 60 billion dollars. He reached home four days ago with 60 billion dollars from America and after reaching there again announced that he needed 60 billion dollars more help. This will never end.'
