Afghan Leader Fawzia Koofi Leads In Nobel Peace Prize Nominations

Fawzia Koofi, a negotiator for the 'Doha talks with Taliban', has been primed for this years' Nobel Peace Prize. Along with her three other sisters, Koofi has been an essential part of the negotiation. Koofi stated that the nomination itself is a "big victory for women in Afghanistan." With her brother and father killed by Taliban regime, Afghanistan’s first women Deputy Speaker, Koofi, has escaped two assassination attempts as well.
