Today, Saturday, the Nobel Peace Prize-winning human rights activist Tawakkol Karman has delivered a speech at the Millennium Youth Camp in the Turkish city of Bolu.

In the event under the title "You Are Your Own Project" organized by the Tawakkol Karman Foundation, Tawakkol Karman urged the camp participants not to separate from their homeland and nation issues and the humanity ones, stressing that those with strong will and determination to succeed always reach their goals.

“You should not give up your dreams and ambitions easily, and you have to keep trying without losing hope. Most of those who have achieved success in life had gone through many failed attempts”, she spoke to the participants, noting that hopelessness is the worst thing ever.

Mrs. Karman emphasized the importance to reject all calls to categorize people into patriotic and non-patriotic based on baseless allegations.

Finally, she has indicated that it is a big mistake to think that any reconciliation with tyranny and tyrants will reap the rewards, pointing out that tyranny usually lives on a policy of making accusations of treason against all opponents as an excuse to muzzle their mouths and confiscate their property.
