Actor Sean Penn gives his Oscar to the Ukrainian President as a symbol of faith in victory
Actor Sean Penn has given one of his Oscars to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a “symbol of faith” in Ukraine’s victory. The award will remain in Ukraine until the end of the war.
The presentation took place during Penn’s third visit to the country during the full-scale war.
Ukrainian President, in turn, presented Penn with a Ukrainian Order of Merit to thank him for his support and significant contribution to the popularization of Ukraine in the world. The actor and director has been a vocal supporter of Ukraine since the full-scale war started.
During the actor’s visit to Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Sean Penn also visited the Walk of the Brave on Constitution Square. A name plaque of Sean Penn is now placed on the alley. His name will stand next to the list of many world leaders who have helped Ukraine during the war.
