Trump and Modi on phone to discuss the situation in the Middle East, Musk participates

On March 28, local time on March 27, it was learned that when U.S. President Trump and Indian Prime Minister Modi were on a phone call about the situation in the Middle East, American entrepreneur Elon Musk also participated. It is not common for a private entrepreneur without a government position to participate in a phone call between national leaders, especially when the conversation involves national security issues. It is reported that this call mainly focused on the escalation of the situation in the Middle East, focusing on Iran's control of the Strait of Hormuz. The Strait is a key channel for global oil and gas transportation, and current shipping blockages have led to higher energy prices and have an impact on global markets. It is unclear why Musk participated in the call or whether he spoke during the call. Musk is said to have investments in Middle Eastern countries and is also seeking to expand its commercial presence in the Indian market. (CCTV News)
