Australian PM Warns Elon Musk Against Election Interference

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese cautions Musk to respect Australia's foreign interference laws ahead of its federal election.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese explicitly warned Elon Musk not to involve himself in Australia's upcoming federal election, emphasizing the country's strict foreign interference laws.
The warning follows Musk's recent involvement in international politics, including financial support for Donald Trump and endorsements of far-right parties in Germany and the UK.
Musk has been critical of Australian government policies, including proposed social media regulations and migration policies, raising concerns about potential influence.
Experts suggest that Musk's influence in Australia may be limited due to the country's compulsory voting system, which minimizes the need for targeted voter mobilization.
Australia's elections are expected to take place by May, though an exact date has not been announced.
