Can't SSH to digital ocean new droplet

Question

I am trying to SSH to my Digital ocean droplet but it shows following error.

ssh: connect to host xxx.xx.xxx.x port 22: Operation timed out

I have already tried with the following commands. Nothing worked.

sudo ufw disable
sudo ufw allow ssh
sudo ufw enable
sudo ufw status

I have set up the SSH key.

Allowed 22 port with the below command

sudo ufw allow 22

If your droplet's IP is ${DROPLET} and the location of your Digital Ocean SSH private key is ${IDENTITY}, then you should be able to:

ssh -i ${IDENTITY} root@${IP}
