Musk offers to close Twitter deal at original price

SAN FRANCISCO, California: Elon Musk on Tuesday (Wednesday in Manila) offered to push through with his buyout of Twitter at the original agreed price, as a trial over his efforts to withdraw from the deal loomed.

The world's richest man said in a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that he sent Twitter a letter vowing to honor the contract.
