Muslim camp Rokhinja became the first place where Jolie went on arrival in Bangladesh. It lives more than 730 thousand people who had to leave their homes and escape from Myanmar, in August 2017, which became the place of hostilities. The actress talked to the residents in order to more accurately assess the situation and the humanitarian situation in the country. After that, the star made a speech and on behalf of UN called for a collection of donations to help refugees. Bangladesh resources have been exhausted in recent years, so it is now required to collect about one billion dollars to deal with all the problems that have arisen. It is expected that today Jolie will meet with the Prime Minister of Sheikh Hasina, the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry Abdul Momen and other officials in Dhaka to discuss the situation.

The Commissioner of the Local Commission on Refugees, said that "Angelina Jolie will be able to convey, which crisis is experiencing Rokhinj, and pay attention to this the humanitarian community." The actress is engaged in charitable and humanitarian activities for many years. During this time, she managed to visit Kosovo, Jordan, Syria and even Russia in 2003 to visit refugees in North Ossetia.
