Dear Jessica, I’d like thank you from the bottom of my heart for coming to Ukraine. It was a huge support for every Ukrainian. Believe me, it really helps to keep the spirit high when someone is coming to my country during the war to support the nation. Thank you again, you’re very brave woman❤️💙💛🇺🇦

Along with EU, they are the ones who sold you out and brought that war to your door. It is incredible how blinded people are. I really hope wars in this world would come to an end but it really can not. Because USA needs war industry to continue their economic growth. Putin is not the only devil in this game. We are living in a world that one can no longer trust in state. Truth needs to be TOLD.

you are so amazing, thank you Jessica

This is so wonderful. Instead of just coming on the show to promote her new movie, they talk about it for a minute and then they talk about the important things going on in the world right now. Jimmy is the perfect host for that. Can you imagine something like this happening on Fallon? I can't.

I'm touched that Jimmy knows in which country Warsaw is located. Even more touched that people didn't forgot Ukraine.

sometimes it seems like it's really difficult for a lot of celebrities to speak up, especially on live television and to allow themselves to be judged for their views and emotions. this is why it’s so admirable to see jessica actually discuss these issues and raise her voice for those in need. her courage is really something more people should look up to ❤❤❤

Yes, the world really should not forget what is happening, because this is putin's goal - he wants the world to be exhausted and used to all this news as if it will become the norm, but it will never be "normal", it's crazy and scary and people have to remember that. thank you for not being silent, Ukrainians love and respect you soo much.

I really admire celebrities who use their platforms to keep attention on certain issues.
