Taekwondo athlete Kimia Alizadeh, who won a bronze medal at the 2024 Paris Olympics, supported the National Campaign Combating Violence Against and Among Children "Be Brave, Be Good" of the State Agency for Child Protection.
"Bullying and humiliating others does not make you a leader, it does not make you successful. Be determined and believe that you can achieve more", Kimia Alizadeh said in a video message. Kimia Alizadeh also said that aggression does not lead to anything good and urged young people to be good heroes.
"Every action, every word has consequences. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Respond to rudeness with kindness. Be brave. Be kind. Aggression has no place in our lives", said the champion.
Kimia Alizadeh left Iran four years ago due to the restrictions imposed on women in the country. She refused to cover her hair, as required by the Islamic regime in the Asian country. This spring, the taekwondo athlete was granted Bulgarian citizenship, and in addition to her second Olympic bronze medal, she also won a European title.
