US President Donald Trump has posthumously honored Charlie Kirk, an ultraconservative activist killed on September 10 during a public rally.

He awarded Kirk with America's highest civilian honor - the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Trump called Charlie Kirk a "martyr for truth and freedom" who can be compared, he said, to Socrates, Saint Peter, Abraham Lincoln and Martin Luther King.

The President recalled the very active role Kirk played in mobilizing young people during the last presidential campaign.
