Letter.

Letter Published in The National UAE on 19June 18      Special envoy Angelina Jolie sets an example for us all        In reference to your story Angelina Jolie pleads for more aid after visit to refugee camp in Iraq (June 18), Mina Aldroubi’s article on the appeal of the Hollywood actress, who is also a United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, was a good read. UN special envoy Angelina Jolie is an inspiration to us all. Her appeal to the international community for support for refugees living in dire conditions, particularly widows in Iraq, is laudable.Celebrities like Jolie have a duty to come forward and use their fame to fight for human rights. Ultimately we all have a duty of care towards refugees. It is our global responsibility to take care of them.K Ragavan, Denver
