President Volodymyr Zelensky’s fleece jacket, which he autographed, was auctioned for £90,000 (about $111,000), at a fundraiser for Ukraine in London on Thursday.

“When the war started, the world couldn’t believe Ukraine and its government will last for more than three days, but it did,” the Ukrainian Embassy to the United Kingdom stated in a video released on Twitter. “Today, the whole world looks up to a man wearing a simple fleece jacket. And now the iconic item, personally signed by President Zelenskyy, is here, “the statement said.

The purpose of the event, dubbed “Brave Ukraine,” was to “tell the stories of (Ukraine’s) bravery, which became iconic during the war, as well as to raise funds to support this bravery,” according to the embassy.
