A Pakistani teenager nearly killed by Taliban gunmen for advocating that all girls should have the right to go to school gave her first formal public remarks Friday at the United Nations. It also happened to be Malala Yousafzai's 16th birthday.
"Today, it is an honor for me to be speaking again after a long time," she said. "Being here with such honorable people is a great moment in my life."
