PM Jacinda Ardern pays tribute to the late Benazir Bhutto

New Zealand's premier took the stage at Harvard University to speak to graduates. She spoke more about her "connection" to the late Benazir. "In June 1989, the prime minister of Pakistan stood on this spot and delivered the commencement address titled Democratic Nations Must Unite. She spoke about her journey, the importance of citizenry, representative government, human rights, and democracy," began Ardern. "She was the first Muslim female prime minister elected in an Islamic country when women in power was a rare thing. She was also the first to give birth in office," she added.
