February Revolution has represented a landmark in the history of Yemen and put Yemeni people on the right path, said the human rights activist and Nobel Peace laureate Tawakkol Karman. 

Karman stressed that the wheel of profound change will never stop after the revolution was able to oust the despot Ali Saleh, strip him away and show him as he really is. 

In her speech delivered during a celebratory festival held in Istanbul on Friday evening to mark the sixth anniversary of the Youth Revolution of February 11, Karman the revolution on February 11 crushed the attempt to transform the republican system in Yemen into a hereditary rule and thus all accomplishments of September and October Revolutions would vanish.

"The February Revolution exposed the ousted president as a gangster," she added, pointing out confidently that it will continue until it fulfils all of its goals.

Mrs. Karman explained that achieving objectives goes through stages, noting, "We called for change but not war, and those who picked the option of warfare have brought about all this destruction."

From Karman’s view, the peaceful popular revolution prevented the collapse of the republican system and broke the monopoly of wealth and power.

"We will work for peace, but not for revenge, and we will go on adhering to moral commitment and patriotism in order to put an end agreed by all parties to the war."

she pointed out that the wheel of change in Yemen has already turned and that it will not stop unless it turns the page of tyranny and repression, prisons, oppression, discrimination, arrogance and corruption.

The mother of revolution noted that the Arab Spring has succeeded in reshaping consciousness towards freedom, dignity and equality, which used to be absent or indistinct in the past.

She concluded by saying that the big fight for freedom, dignity, justice, democracy and equality can be summed up in one phrase: the Arab Spring with no autumn.
