Sean Penn, on the ground in Ukraine, says Putin has made a horrible mistake for all of humankind [View all]
Actor and activist Sean Penn, who is on the ground in Ukraine filming a documentary on the invasion, denounced Russian President Vladimir Putin for what the American filmmaker called “a most horrible mistake for all of humankind.”
In a statement to The Washington Post, Penn on Saturday praised Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, while acknowledging the destruction caused by Putin in the days since Russia launched broad attacks throughout Ukraine.
“Already a brutal mistake of lives taken and hearts broken, and if he doesn’t relent, I believe Mr. Putin will have made a most horrible mistake for all of humankind,” Penn said. “President Zelensky and the Ukrainian people have risen as historic symbols of courage and principle.”
He added, “Ukraine is the tip of the spear for the democratic embrace of dreams. If we allow it to fight alone, our soul as America is lost.”
