Malala Yousafzai Says She's 'Heartbroken' Over Donald Trump's Plan For Refugees


Malala Yousafzai said Friday that her heart is breaking. The Pakistani teen activist and youngest-ever Nobel Prize winner released a statement condemning President Donald Trump’s plans for restricting immigrants and refugees to the United States. Though Trump had not released further details when Yousafzai issued her statement, a widely circulated draft of the document says his administration will temporarily ban refugees and immigrants from several Muslim-majority countries. Trump also said in an interview on Friday that he would prioritize Christian refugees over others, but the draft of his plan indicates that all refugees of any religion will be banned for at least 120 days. “I am heartbroken that today President Trump is closing the door on children, mothers and fathers fleeing violence and war,” Yousafzai said in the statement, which was released by the Malala Fund, her charity focusing on girls’ education.
