Zuckerberg’s entrance reportedly surprised those present, who were worried about the presence of someone without security clearance at a sensitive moment.
According to the report, the military leaders were “confused and a little nervous” about the situation, and one of the officials described the moment as “a bizarre world.”
Zuckerberg was instructed to leave the room and wait outside so that the meeting could proceed normally.
White House Version Contests Situation
A report from the Daily Mail presented a different version of events. A senior White House official stated that the allegations were being misinterpreted.
According to him, Zuckerberg had been invited by Trump himself only for a quick greeting before his official meeting, which was to follow.
This source also said that the Meta CEO left the Oval Office on mutual initiative, and that there was no type of embarrassment or direct request for him to leave.
Zuckerberg and the Political Landscape
Zuckerberg has maintained an ambiguous relationship with American politics. Although he has previously supported progressive agendas and politicians from the Democratic Party, in recent years he has aligned himself with Trump’s conservative agenda, even attending his inauguration in January.
He has also been alongside figures like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk during public ceremonies related to the government.
The exact date of the episode in the Oval Office, however, has not been confirmed by the reports.
