The vice prime minister of Ukraine wrote a letter to Tim Cook, asking him to remove Apple services from Russia.
Vice Prime Minister Mykhailo Fedorov, who is also the country's digital minister, wrote a letter to Cook.
The letter appealed to Cook to help protect Ukraine and to stop supplying Apple services and products to the Russian Federation.
In 2022, modern technology is perhaps the best answer to the tanks, multiple rocket launchers and missiles, Fedorov wrote.
Russia invaded Ukraine on Thursday.
When contacted by Insider about Fedorov's letter, Apple did not respond immediately.
Cook said he was deeply concerned with the situation in Ukraine.
We are doing everything we can for our teams there and will support local humanitarian efforts. Cook said that he was thinking of the people who are right now in harm's way and joining all those calling for peace.
