In her final statement, Adline was asked to talk about 'free speech and the right to protest.' She said, "The right to protest. We've seen many protests in recent days. Especially I want to point out the protests that women have made throughout the years with equal rights. Until today, we lacking them. Because protest helps us raise our voice against what's happening against inequality. It helps minorities in any democracy to raise their voice. So the protest is very important. But what's not important is when you use it, because with every right comes responsibility for the use of it with power. Thank you."
