Quote from Zelenskyy: "I met with UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Orlando Bloom and the UNICEF team. [UNICEF is] an organisation engaged in humanitarian support and the protection of children. Orlando Bloom has been working in this area for a long time and has accomplished a lot. He has been to Ukraine and Donbas, even before the full-scale war. And he knows what this aggression has brought and what efforts the entire world must undertake in order to stop [Russia’s aggression and] restore Ukraine after the war."

Details: President Zelenskyy said that the meeting participants discussed "rebuilding our country [and] our school infrastructure."

Quote from Zelenskyy: "We agreed that our teams should work [together] on several issues.

One of them is the repatriation of our children, who were forcibly taken to Russia. [Second] is the creation of bomb shelters for our children. And the third is technical support for distance learning in those areas and regions where in-person study is impossible because of the associated risks."

Previously: Actor and UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador Orlando Bloom arrived in Ukraine on Sunday, 26 March. He visited a children’s centre in Kyiv, among other things.
