Elon Musk has voiced support for the United States withdrawing from both the United Nations and NATO.
The billionaire tech mogul made his stance clear in a post on X (formerly Twitter) after resharing a message from political commentator Gunther Eagleman, who wrote on March 1: “It’s time to leave NATO and the UN.” Musk, who leads Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), simply responded, “I agree.”
Additionally, Musk reshared a post by Republican Congressman Thomas Massie, who called NATO “a Cold War relic that needs to be relegated to a talking kiosk at the Smithsonian.”
Musk’s comments align with calls from several Republican lawmakers urging the U.S. to reconsider its NATO membership. Utah Senator Mike Lee, a longtime critic of the alliance, has described NATO as a “Cold War relic,” arguing that it benefits Europe while being a “raw deal for America.”
