Elon Musk met with controversial Turkish President and no one knows why

November 8, 2017

Elon Musk visited Turkey and met with the country’s president Recep Tayyip Erdogan, but no one knows exactly why — but the summit could have something to do with Tesla and Turkey’s domestic automotive ambitions.

The meeting comes shortly after five Turkish businesses launched a joint venture to produce a Turkish-made vehicle, according to the Associated Press. The project was reportedly encouraged by Erdogan, and the state has sponsored electric auto projects in the past that aimed to compete with Tesla in the country.
