WASHINGTON, March 27 (Reuters) - Elon Musk joined a phone call between U.S. President Donald Trump and India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday about the war in Iran, the New York Times reported on Friday, citing two U.S. officials.

It was unclear why Musk was on the call or whether he spoke, the newspaper said.
