Musk kept China's BYD out of US to protect Tesla: Prasad on Starlink row. Ex-India pacer Venkatesh Prasad reacted to Elon Musk's claim that "certain oligarchs" are blocking Starlink in India. "Extremely poor from President Musk, who ensured [China's] BYD didn’t enter...US for fear of his Tesla sales crumbling," Prasad said. He also accused Musk of targeting US President Donald Trump over the Epstein files before backing down to protect his business interests.
