Ex-NBA star Enes Kanter Freedom blasted Elon Musk on Monday over Twitter restricting access to some accounts in Turkey ahead of the presidential election and said Musk was "bowing down to a dictatorship."

"CNN This Morning" host Kaitlan Collins asked Freedom about the controversy amid the close Turkish electoral contest in his home country.

"I don’t want to hear about Elon Musk talking about free speech ever again. He is literally bowing down to a dictatorship. The Turkish government called Elon to pretty much tell them if you don’t ban couple accounts that we’re going to shut down the whole app in Turkey. And he picked business and money over his morals and principles. So I don’t want to hear about him talking about free speech ever again. And that actually plays a very important role because there are many journalists around the world that is critical for the election. He was wrong for that, for sure," Freedom said.
