Angelina Jolie: with her son Maddox attended a state dinner with Joe Biden and the President of South Korea

Angelina Jolie and her son Maddox attended a state dinner with President Biden and the South Korean president.

A source close to Angelina Jolie told People magazine: “Asia-American relations are important to Angelina’s family. She and her children have had close ties to the region for many years, including South Korea. Maddox studied at Yonsei University in Seoul. Angelina has been a part of South Korea many times. “As an artist and as an artist, she has been working in humanitarian aid and refugee advocacy for the past two decades. Angelina and Maddox are honored to be a part of this state dinner.”

Angelina Jolie last visited Seoul in 2019 when her son Maddox started studying at Yonsei University and in 2018, when she met with refugees on behalf of the United Nations Refugee Agency. The book on the rights of young people, co-authored with Amnesty International,Know and Claim Your Rights” was published in South Korea last year.

Last month, a White House press release said the South Korean leader and his wife were visiting. “We celebrate the 70th anniversary of the US-South Korea alliance essential for the advancement of peace, stability and prosperity between the two countries, the Indo-Pacific region and the entire world.” “

Despite continuing to be heavily involved in humanitarian work, Angelina Jolie stepped down as special envoy to the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees at the end of last year.

Brad Pitt’s ex said at the time: “I will continue to do everything I can to support refugees and other displaced people in the years to come. After 20 years of working within the United Nations system, I believe it is now time to work in a different way for me, by engaging directly with refugees and local organizations and supporting solution advocacy.”
