ANGELIA JOLIE was in Baghdad Thursday as part of her continuing efforts as a U.N. goodwill ambassador, the Associated Press reports. The Oscar winner hopes to focus attention on the struggles that more than two million Iraqi refugees face as they gradually make their way back to their homes.

"What happens in Iraq and how Iraq settles in the years to come is going to affect the entire Middle East," Jolie said during an interview that aired on CNN. "And a big part of what it's going to affect, how it settles, is how these people are returned and settled into their homes and their community and brought back together and whether they can live together and what their communities look like."

The AP reports that, according to the American Embassy, Jolie plans to meet with U.S. General DAVID PETRAEUS, Iraqi Prime Minister NOURI AL-MALIKI as well as Iraqi migration officials.

Jolie also took time out during her trip to visit with American troops at a dining facility in central Baghdad.
