During his recent visit to Ukraine, the actor Sean Penn chose to give President Volodymyr Zelenskyj a special gift.
At their meeting, he suddenly pulled an Oscar statuette out of his backpack.
Penn has on several occasions expressed his support for Ukraine. Before the last Oscars, he threatened to melt down his statuette, if President Zelenskyi didn’t get the chance to give a speech.
– Before the war, this was my big dream, says Volodymyr Zelenskyj after Sean Penn hands over the statuette.
