KIEV: Ukraine has taken to Twitter to ask Elon Musk to send it ventilators after the billionaire chief executive of Tesla Inc offered to ship them across the world during the coronavirus pandemic.
Musk said this week he was ready to send the life-saving machines wherever his company delivers, free of charge. "Dear Elon, Ukraine is the second largest country in Europe with population nearly 40 mln citizens," Kiev's embassy in Washington wrote on Twitter late on Wednesday. "The pandemic situation in Ukraine is approaching its peak, April is going to be the hardest.
People in hospitals need ventilators. We are ready to cooperate! Dyakuyemo! (Thank you!)" Former health minister Ulana Suprun tweeted a separate appeal to the entrepreneur.
