Meanwhile, Musk has hit back at Twitter's lawsuit accusing him of breaking the $44 billion contract by withdrawing out of the purchase transaction. Musk turned to Twitter just minutes after learning that Twitter had sued him and simply commented, "Oh the irony haha." Without addressing the case, it's evident that Musk has alluded to the continuing debate, especially given that Twitter allegedly refused to go through with the agreement back in April.

The lawsuit is the start of what could be a long legal struggle as Twitter attempts to hold Musk accountable for his agreement to pay USD 54.20 per share for the firm. Twitter, which is represented by M&A powerhouse legal firm Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, said Musk sought an out of the acquisition by claiming a "material adverse effect" or breach of contract.

Musk confirmed the cancellation of the USD 44 billion contract in a letter addressed to Twitter last week by his team. Musk chose to halt the transaction owing to many violations of the acquisition agreement.
