BAGHDAD (AP) - Angelina Jolie is in Baghdad on a mission to help
Iraqi refugees.
Jolie is a U.N. goodwill ambassador. She says more needs to be
done to help more than 2 million Iraqis who've had to leave their
homes because of the violence.
She says the current decline in violence is a perfect time for
Iraqis to return home, but she told CNN, so far, "there seems to
be just a lot of talk."
Jolie spoke about the situation with the top U.S. commander in
Iraq. She also has plans to meet with Iraq's prime minister and
migration officials.
She also took time to hang out with U.S. troops during lunch.
