Actor Sean Penn has intentions to return to Ukraine after filming a documentary featuring President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.
During an interview with Hollywood Authentic, Penn explained, “Look, my intention is to go back into Ukraine. But I’m not an idiot, I am not certain what I can offer.”
Penn suggested the only possible reason for him staying in Ukraine “longer last time would’ve been for me to be holding a rifle, probably without body armour, because as a foreigner, you would want to give that body armour to one of the civilian fighters who doesn’t have it or to a fighter with more skills than I have, or to a younger man or woman who could fight for longer or whatever.”
He added, “So, where I am in life is short of doing that, but if you’ve been in Ukraine has to cross your mind.”
Penn continued, “And you kind of think what century is this? Because I was at the gas station in Brentwood the other day and I’m now thinking about taking up arms against Russia? What the f**k is going on?”
Zelenskyy celebrated Penn’s visit to Ukraine.
“The director specially came to Kyiv to record all the events that are currently happening in Ukraine and to tell the world the truth about Russia’s invasion of our country,” Zelenskyy said in a statement.
The statement continues, “Sean Penn is among those who support Ukraine in Ukraine today. Our country is grateful to him for such a show of courage and honesty.”
