Musk Says Shouldn’t Be Problems Balancing China, Tesla, Twitter

(Bloomberg) — Tesla Inc. Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk said he doesn’t think there’ll be any issue balancing his Tesla interests in China with the future acquisition of Twitter Inc.

Twitter doesn’t operate in China and “China does not attempt to interfere with the free speech of the press in the US, as far as I’m aware,” he said in an interview with Bloomberg News Editor-In-Chief John Micklethwait.

Musk also praised the work of Chinese firms. “I am very impressed with the car companies in China, just in general companies in China. I think they’re extremely competitive, hard-working and smart,” he said.
