American actor Sean Penn received a symbolic award in Ukraine instead of attending the Oscars award ceremony in Los Angeles. Ukrainian railway workers from the company Ukrzaliznycja presented him with an unconventional Oscar statuette made from the steel structure of a train carriage that had been damaged in a Russian attack during the war. aktuality.sk ↗ pravda.sk ↗
Penn decided to support Ukraine with his personal presence in the war-torn country. The statuette was given to him as a token of thanks for his long-term support and commitment to the Ukrainian people. This gesture carries deep symbolic meaning, as it represents the connection between Penn's artistic recognition and the real consequences of the war affecting Ukrainian infrastructure and cities.

This is a continuation of Penn's public engagement in support of Ukraine. In the past, he has already shown his support for the country, including his personal presence there during the conflict. The Hollywood actor thus once again drew attention to the situation in Ukraine and symbolically prioritized supporting the country over attending the prestigious global ceremony. Refresher.sk ↗
