Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai doesn't think much of Donald Trump, calling his proposal to stop Muslims from coming into the US "tragic" and arguing that comments like his lead to more terrorism.

"Well, that's really tragic that you hear these comments which are full of hatred, full of this ideology of being discriminative towards others," Yousafzai told the AFP news service.

In a separate interview with the UK's Channel 4, she argued Trump's comments aren't just tragic but dangerous:

I can just highlight one thing. The more you speak about Islam and against all Muslims, the more terrorists we create. So it's important that whatever politicians say, whatever the media say, they should be really, really careful about it. If your intention is to stop terrorism, do not try to blame the whole population of Muslims for it because it cannot stop terrorism. It will radicalize more terrorists.

Yousafzai, who is from Pakistan, became a worldwide icon after being shot in the head by the Taliban in 2012 because she advocated for women's education. She now lives in Birmingham, England.
