South African businessman Errol Musk, father of entrepreneur and billionaire Elon Musk, praised Russia during remarks at the Future Forum 2050 in Moscow on June 9, 2025. He said that he saw a “perfect total civilization,” adding that Moscow easily rivals ancient Rome and is probably the premier capital city in the world. Musk also praised Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, saying he has always enjoyed watching him on television, and that Lavrov “always seems to come out the winner.” Musk asked how to change Western perceptions about Russia, calling it one of the finest communities he has ever seen.
Other participants on the panel included Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, Russia-based American activist Jackson Hinkle, and former British MP George Galloway. The conference was co-organized by Russian philosopher Aleksandr Dugin and attended by American conspiracy theorist Alex Jones and economist Jeffrey Sachs, among others.
A real rogues gallery.
