It’s been an incredibly busy time for Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky. In addition to overseeing a war with Russia, he (and his wife) have had a photo shoot with Annie Leibovitz for Vogue, not to mention taken meetings with celebrity battle strategists such as Ben Stiller and others. The most recent Hollywood celeb to have a meeting with Zelensky is Jessica Chastain:

From the New York Post:
Actress Jessica Chastain met with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv on Sunday.
The 44-year-old Zelensky, a former actor and comedian, posted a photo on his official Telegram account showing him and the “Eyes of Tammy Faye” actress in the presidential palace.
“American actress Jessica Chastain is in Ukraine today. For us, such visits of famous people are extremely valuable,” Zelensky wrote.
It’s a good thing the U.S. is sending billions in resources to Ukraine so our celebrities can be heavily protected.
Weirdest war ever

Right?
It's a bit… Weird that celebrities are lining up to fly to a war zone to take a picture with this guy https://t.co/ejZAWPHaMT

Ukraine is such a violent and deadly warzone that another Hollywood actress could casually head over for a photo op. pic.twitter.com/D4pRXDXpCn

It looks like the “guns don’t make you safer” actress had some help in the security department:
Who will be the next celeb to visit Zelensky in Kyiv? Place your bets!
Why wouldn't she, everyone else has https://t.co/MMEc3rorgb

Meeting Zelensky is like the pilgrimage to Mecca for gullible twits.
Can you imagine him and his guys laughing at all these people? https://t.co/GLe9QgQffk

A recent report found that only 30 percent of U.S. aid sent to Ukraine makes it to the intended destination.
