Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Monday, has reportedly apologized to President Trump.

This was made public byUS special envoy Steve Witkoff on Monday, days after their fiery Oval Office verbal war.

According to FOX News, Witkoff claims Zelensky sent a letter to the president.

Witkoff said he apologized for that whole incident that happened in the Oval Office.

Witkoff said, “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.”

Trump, 78, publicly revealed that he received a letter from Zelensky, 47, last Tuesday during his annual presidential address to Congress last week.

But Trump made no mention of receiving an apology.

The Post reached out to a Zelensky spokesperson for comment.

A top aide, Mykhailo Podolyak, previously told French outlet Le Point that his boss would not apologize.

Still, when reporters asked Trump on Sunday if the US was ready to resume intelligence sharing, he replied, “We just about have.”

A chief concern for Zelensky has been to lock down security guarantees for his country.

“These are not complicated things, they just … need to be put on the table and everybody needs to be transparent about what their expectations are, then we can begin to have a discussion about how we compromise,” Witkoff said.

Last week, Trump threatened Russia with “large-scale sanctions” and tariffs in response to Moscow “absolutely ‘pounding Ukraine on the battlefield.”

Trump later explained that he believes it is “more difficult, frankly, to deal with Ukraine” than Russia, indicating frustrations that Kyiv thinks it has more cards to play than it actually has.

“Part of a mediation like this is to move the two sides closer, to narrow the differences.

“We’ve gone a long way to do that with the Russians, and I am really hopeful — all the signs are really, really positive from Zelensky,” Witkoff added.

On paper, Wikoff is technically the special envoy to the Middle East, but the real estate mogul has been significantly involved in negotiations over the war in Ukraine.
