Iran's only female Olympic medallist, 21, announces she has defected to Europe three years after bagging taekwondo bronze in Rio

Kimia Alizadeh blamed the 'hypocrisy' of a system that 'humiliates athletes'. Ms Alizadeh won a bronze medal in taekwondo at the 2016 Rio Olympics. She said she was 'one of the millions of oppressed women in Iran'.

And to make it all worse, you would be a minority in America right now, even worse you're an Arab minority. Given the current climate in the US, stay away.

If she's looking for a place where women are treated fairly stay in Europe. In the US you have to prove you didn't deserve to be raped as opposed to being raped, paid less, most places have no maternity leave, poor family time, and often bad coverage for womens related illnesses

And Europe has done zero to hold the Iranian regime accountable. She needs to thank Trump.

خوب کاری کردی رفتی، جایی باش که قدردان زحمات شما باشن♡♡

Well done to her for escaping an oppressive country.
