See the press conference with Nobel Peace Prize winners here – Aftenposten

– It is a great pleasure and honor to thank the Nobel Committee. I and miin family arrived yesterday hit. And since all we know called from India and asked this cold country: Have you real woolen and warm jackets?

I say to them: I have never met such warm as in this country. It comes from ordinary people and from the Nobel Committee and dignitaries, said Kailash Satyarthi at the press conference.

The two winners both came to Norway Monday. Indian Kaylash Satyarthi was greeted by Nobel Committee Chairman Thorbjorn Jagland and Nobel director Geir Lundestad at Gardermoen Monday morning and Monday night came Pakistani Malala Yousafzai. Also she was taken against those of the two at the airport.

Yousafzai (17) is the youngest Nobel winner and awarded the prize for his work in girls’ right to education.



– Thank polite no to tea

Satyarthi started organization Bachpan Bachao Andolan, which has helped tens of thousands of children out of slavery-like conditions. He has previously said Aftenposten that India’s households are next arena for the fight against child labor.

– If we see children working in a tesjappe shall we politely say that we will not drink tea. Are we home-laws or relatives and being served tea by a maid, we will take courage to us and say “no, this cup batter I do not.”



Thanks for the warm welcome

Malala Yousafzai arrived at the Grand Hotel in Oslo Monday night in 22-hours. Then she said to the assembled reporters:

– I am very happy to be back in Norway again. I’m glad for the warm welcome, and that people are here to welcome me. It gives me courage and strength. I feel like people standing by my side. Thank you, she said.
