Vogue India has just published an interview with Angelina Jolie on June 19. Here, the 45-year-old actress shared her experiences during her two decades of working with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees and her journey to adopt three children: Maddox, Pax and Zahara.
The fact that the star of the movie Hunt adopted Maddox and Pax Thien from two neighboring countries made many people wonder. The mother of six said she had thought about this issue. “Initially, I had no intention of adopting a child from Vietnam because Maddox is Cambodian and the two countries have a complicated history. Then I accidentally read a book on human rights and found myself staring at a picture of a Vietnamese soldier being held captive by the Americans. I thought about my country and America’s intervention in Southeast Asia. I think we should focus on a future where we are all family. I am so lucky to be their mother. I am grateful for that every day”, actress Dark Fairyshared the deep reason why she decided to adopt Pax Thien.

Angelina Jolie said she appreciates the culture and the land in which her adopted children were born. Star Thief Grave Thief always creates conditions for Pax Thien as well as two other adopted brothers of the boy to learn about his roots. “The three adopted children each carry a beautiful mystery about the world they were born into. You come from a different race, a different land, that is a complete gift. Children will never lose their connection to the place where their parents were born. They have their own roots that you need to respect and learn from. The children are not entering my world, we are entering each other’s world,” ex-wife Brad Pitt expressed.
Talking about how to maintain a healthy environment for children after divorce, Angelina Jolie said: “I focus on healing the spirit of my children. Some people have taken advantage of my silence and children see lies about them in the media, but I remind my children that we know the truth and we are the ones who know us. Best. In fact, my children are strong and brave children.” The actress also added that she broke up with Brad Pitt for family happiness and it was the right decision.
