At Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida, Musk joined the conversation between Trump and Zelensky.
The specifics of the discussion and possible policy changes toward Ukraine are not fully known, but CNN confirmed the occurrence through unnamed sources, while Axios reported the call lasted nearly 30 minutes.
During the call, Musk reassured Zelensky of continued support through his Starlink satellites, which have been instrumental since Russia's 2022 invasion by aiding Ukrainian military communications.
The call followed a Trump-Zelensky meeting at the UN General Assembly in New York, where Trump pledged support for a diplomatic resolution of the conflict.
Zelensky later expressed his approval and congratulations to Trump on social media.
