Radar.am — Elon Musk has raised alarms regarding serious demographic issues in European countries, publicly warning that Western nations face a real threat of population extinction.
On his social media page, Musk cited specific figures, noting that in 21 of the 27 European Union member states, the mortality rate exceeds the birth rate. The entrepreneur characterized this concerning situation as a path toward the collapse of the West, sparking widespread discussion.
This perspective is based on recent United Nations statistical data analyzing the demographic landscape of the world's largest economies. Studies show that since 1950, fertility rates in the US, UK, France, Germany, Japan, and South Korea have been consistently declining, reaching alarming levels.
