Looking dashing as always, Angelina Jolie
was spotted at the screening of her newest film "In the Land of Blood and Honey"
in London, England this afternoon .
The 36-year-old joined forces with
Foreign Secretary William Hague at the Foreign Commonwealth Office to launch a
dedicated British team to combat and prevent sexual violence overseas ahead of
the film's screening.
This new initiative was created ahead of
Britain’s 2013 presidency campaign and Mr. Hague spoke out saying, “It is in the
context of war and conflict that sexual violence is found to the most appalling
degree, and on a scale most of us cannot imagine.”
"Sexual violence is an issue which is
central to conflict prevention and to peace building worldwide," he
added.
Jolie is a special envoy for the United
Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and has visited countries in need
including Iraq, Dafur in Sudan and Libya and her new film is her big directing
debut and deals with mass rapes by Bosnian Serb forces.
