At the meeting in the Oval Office, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy brought boxer Oleksandr Usyk's championship belt as a gift. However, after a heated argument between them, Zelenskyy did not take the belt back.

He said this in an interview for Time magazine, writes UNN.

Details

Journalist Simon Shuster, who was preparing an interview with the President of Ukraine, wondered about the fate of the Ukrainian boxer's belt.

"I don't know," Zelenskyy told me. "Maybe it's still there."

It later became known that during the commotion after the argument, one of the White House staff found the belt and took it to Trump's private dining room.

Now the belt, along with other souvenirs, serves as a reminder of a diplomatic moment that could not be resolved.

Recall

Earlier, UNN wrote that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy brought Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk's championship belt as a gift to US President Donald Trump during his visit to the White House.

However, he decided not to hand it over, but instead showed photographs of Ukrainian prisoners of war who had been tortured in Russian captivity.

This moment, according to some American officials, caused the well-known dispute in the Oval Office.
