Angelina Jolie has come out in defense of free speech and lamented that she does not 'recognize' the United States anymore.

The actress, 50, made the remarks while promoting her new film Couture at the San Sebastian Film Festival in Spain.

'Anything, anywhere that divides or limits personal expressions and freedoms, I think, is very dangerous,' Jolie said. 

Speaking about the political turmoil in the US, Jolie said that these are, 'very, very heavy times'.

'I don’t, at this time, recognize my country,' she said. I’ve always lived internationally. My family is international . My life, my world view, is equal [and] united.

'I think these are such serious times that we have to be careful not to say things casually. So I’ll be careful in a press conference… But these are very, very heavy time.'

Jolie turned heads in a black plunging gown as she posed on the red carpet during the Couture photocall.

The actress has long been outspoken about political and international issues, but her latest take about the US rapidly sparked passionate reactions on the internet.

One X user wrote: 'I'm so glad she's not a part of this country since she lives internationally away from it.'

Another disagreed: 'She's absolutely correct.'

A third said: 'Nobody of intelligence cares what she thinks or feels. She's shown her true self.'

Jolie was previously a special envoy for the United Nations' refugee aid agency between 2012-2022 and worked with the organization since 2001.

In 2018, the actress hinted at a move into politics - saying that she would 'always go where I am needed.'

Jolie said: 'I don't know if I'm fit for politics ... but then I've also joked that I don't know if I have a skeleton left in my closet.'

She pointed to her work with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner.

'I'm also able to work with governments,' Jolie added. 'So I sit in a very interesting place of being able to get a lot done, without a title and without it being about myself or my policies.'

The 50-year-old visited the White House in September 2021 to support the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act.

Two years later, the Oscar winner joined then-US president Joe Biden and first lady Jill Biden for a state dinner honoring the president of South Korea.

Jolie had denounced Donald Trump's policies during his first administration.

She wrote in an op-ed for The New York Times: 'We must never allow our values to become the collateral damage of a search for greater security.

'Shutting our door to refugees or discriminating among them is not our way, and does not make us safer.'

Jolie's father, Jon Voight, is known as one of Trump's biggest supporters in Hollywood.

He was captured celebrating Trump's election win against Kamala Harris at a party alongside Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders.

Trump awarded Voight with the National Medal of Arts and National Humanities Medal in his first presidency.

Voight previously criticized his daughter's support for Palestine in comments to Variety: 'She has been exposed to propaganda.

'She's been influenced by antisemitic people. Angie has a connection to the UN, and she's enjoyed speaking out for refugees. But these people are not refugees.'
