Orlando Bloom made a surprise appearance in Ukraine over the weekend and even popped in for a meeting with leader Volodymyr Zelensky at the Presidential Palace.
Bloom traveled for three days through the war-torn country still under siege by the Russian military while performing his duties as a goodwill ambassador for UNICEF -- the United Nations org that provides international humanitarian aid to children.
Check out video showing Bloom placing his hand against his heart before shaking Zelensky's hand while the two exchange pleasantries. At one point, Bloom said,"To see the children, to see in their eyes - its palpable - the anxiety ... and yet the strength of the Ukrainian people is something that is really awe-inspiring."He continued,"And of course, your messaging is the reason for that. So it’s remarkable to see how you are holding this country."
