Mr Yousaf resigned as first minister in May as he faced motions of no confidence in him and his government. He said at the time he had 'underestimated' the level of hurt caused by his decision to end a power-sharing deal with the Scottish Greens in April.
The breakdown came after a Green backlash against the SNP government's decision to row back on climate targets and gender policies. It left the SNP with a minority administration at Holyrood.
Mr Yousaf said the relationship came under strain following an interview by Greens co-leader Patrick Harvie in which he says Mr Harvie refused to accept the Cass review into gender services for children in England was a scientific document.
Mr Yousaf then used an expletive to take full blame for the decision to end the deal with the Greens, adding: 'It was my choice.'
