The president of North Macedonia walked an 11-year-old girl with Down syndrome to school after he heard she was being bullied.

President Stevo Pendarovski held Embla Ademi's hand as he walked her to her elementary school in the city of Gostivar on Monday.

Pendarovski "talked to Embla's parents about the challenges she and her family face on a daily basis," and discussed solutions, his office said in a press release. "They should not only enjoy the rights they deserve, but also feel equal and welcome in the school desks and schoolyard. It is our obligation, as a state, but also as individuals, and the key element in this common mission is empathy."

The president said he "encouraged and supported" Embla's parents in their fight for the protection of the rights of children like their daughter.

Bill maher calls out Trudeau

Wow this brought tears to my eyes ! Omg That’s the proper use of power !

Please Trudeau, don't do this here, the kid will never get out of this😂

How sweet

There you go CTV..stick to stories that don’t involve politics or government…amazing story.!!

10's of 1000's of Canadians are being bullied by their leader; he won't meet with them, let alone walk with them.

If you believe in mandates, vax passes, lockdowns and restricted freedoms you just might be a member of a fringe minority with unacceptable views!

CTV, you should be labeled as 'state affiliated/sponsored media'

CTV, you and the CBC are suspiciously quiet concerning one of the most massive, country wide (even would wide) demonstrations this country has witnessed. What coverage you do present is biased, misleading and divisive! Please reevaluate your definition of 'covering the news'!
