Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky apologized to President Donald Trump over an altercation at the Oval Office that saw him removed from the White House.

Late last month, Zelensky got into a shouting match with Trump on camera after he interrupted JD Vance's response to a reporter question. The heated exchange cut short the visit as Trump and Zelensky removed.

Trump special envoy Steve Witkoff confirmed in an interview with Fox News that “Zelensky sent a letter to the president. He apologized for that whole incident that happened in the Oval Office."

“I think that it was an important step and there’s been a lot of discussion between our teams and the Ukrainians and the Europeans who are relevant to this discussion as well," he added.

The news came as Ukrainian and American diplomats were set to meet in Saudi Arabia to discuss a revised minerals agreement, which Zelensky had been set to sign at the White House before the spat.

Trump has since suspended military aid and intelligence sharing to Ukraine, insisting that Zelensky was not serious about pursuing a ceasefire agreement with Russia.
