U.S. President Donald Trump denied a report by the New York Times that said Elon Musk will be briefed on Friday about the American military’s contingency planning for any potential war with China.

The Times, which cited multiple unidentified US officials familiar with the plans, said Musk would see details of American plans in a presentation led by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and top U.S. military leaders. Any such briefing would expose some of the Pentagon’s closest-guarded strategic thinking to a billionaire with extensive business ties in China.
