Nilsen praised Musk’s contributions, stating that his companies, including Tesla and X, have played a role in making the world more connected and safer.
While the official list of Nobel Peace Prize nominees is yet to be disclosed, Nilsen’s endorsement of Musk’s candidacy highlights the Tela founder’s influence and impact on global affairs.
