Volodymyr Zelensky shook hands with JD Vance in their first meeting since their heated exchange at the White House in February that shocked the world.
The Ukrainian president and US vice president were pictured together at the inauguration of Pope Leo XIV in Vatican City on Sunday.
Zelensky approached Vance as he sat in the front row for the new Pontiff's inaugural mass.
Vance rose to his feet to shake the Ukrainian war leader's hand enthusiastically before Zelensky quickly moved on.
However, he then spotted the Second Lady, Usha Vance, out of the corner of his eye and returned to shake her hand too.
