It comes after the Ukraine crisis has dominated the headlines over the past few weeks.
Dan shared: “Thanks for being with us on #BBCBreakfast this morning.
“We know it’s a tough watch at the moment but we are trying to bring you the latest from #Ukraine. We’ll continue to speak to our correspondents and Ukrainians about what they are facing at the moment.”
Dan hits back after Ukraine interview
Last week, the star sat down with Ukrainian singer Maria Burmaka to discuss the current crisis.
During the live interview, Dan was forced to apologise after Maria dropped the F-bomb whilst discussing Russian president Vladimir Putin.
The presenter was later hit with accusations of “cutting off” Maria with his apology.

At the time, one complained: “There was no need @mrdanwalker to cut her off. He could have apologised after finishing the interview. Showed a lack of professionalism.”
Another said: “Can’t believe that Dan Walker just cut off Maria Burmaka and apologised for her swearing! She was talking about the invasion of her country. I found what Dan did and said far more offensive!!!”
However, Dan defended himself saying: “I’m not sure if many of those complaining actually watched it. I tried to be as gentle, caring & understanding as possible but follow the OFCOM rules at the same time.”
