Elon Musk Receives Special Recognition from Russia

A man named Steve Witkoff went to Moscow. He brought an award for Elon Musk, says CBS News. The award is an Order of the Red Banner of Labor. Musk got the award, but there was no party.

The award is based on rules from 1928 and 1977. Vladimir Putin signed a paper about it. Musk got the award for his work in science and building things. He helped Russia and the USA work together.

Maybe it was a surprise idea, or someone thought of it quickly. Musk usually sends his book to Moscow. This time, they made a new book for him with all the awards.

The award looks different from the regular one. The red star is like the SpaceX logo. There are lightning symbols on it because he works with electric cars.

Donald Trump is not happy with Musk. They did not want to make Trump more angry. That is why there was no big event for the award.
