Durov, a Russian-born billionaire with citizenship in the UAE, France, Russia, and St. Kitts and Nevis, is receiving consular support from the Emirati government and the Russian embassy. His custody in France has been extended for up to four days, during which authorities will decide whether to press charges or release him.

Elon Musk has publicly criticized the arrest, calling for Durov’s release and denouncing efforts to curb free speech. French President Emmanuel Macron has stated that the arrest is part of an ongoing judicial investigation and is not politically motivated. In response, Musk has requested more information to better inform the global public about the situation.
