Infanta Cristina and Family, Current Events Part 4: December 2005 - March 2006

[crisiñaki]

Cristina has a strong voice.
There are many videos posted when Irene was born. Although some are broken after some time, this one still works:

http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums/224419-post194.html

Yeah, but I wish there was a video of an interview or something like that, because reporters stop Cristina in the street a lot, when she confirmes she's pregnant, when Leonor was born, so that's kind of what I want or maybe a video of an speech; what I'm asking for is to hear her talking and give myself an idea of her intelligence level (people says she's VERY intelligent and well prepared)

I know i'm being a little exigent, but I think nothing is impossible in this forum isn't it?

(Almost) Nothing is impossible for The Royal Forums, but the problem with those videos is that they expire after some time.
If what you want is to hear the sound of Infanta Cristina's voice, you have the video I posted above and also this one, where she speaks a bit more:

If you want to evaluate her intelligence and loquacity, you may read her speeches provided in the website of Casa Real:

Hope this helps...

The national selector of handball, that kept awake that as much infanta Cristina as Iñaki Urdangarín had visited the players in clothes after the defeat, insisted, however, in the importance of the medal conquered in a European in which Spain only harvested an only defeat.

I was reading on the internet the following article from El Mundo: http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2006/02/17/espana/1140168143.html

Does anybody know more about it? is it true that there were irregular handling of the money involved (more than 1 million euro).

 

[Elsa M.]

I was reading on the internet the following article from El Mundo: http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2006/02/17/espana/1140168143.html

The PSOE accused the Balearic Executive of irregular management of 1,2 million euros, for the organization of an international congress on tourism and sports in Mallorca. This event, which took place on November 22nd and 25th 2005, was organized by the Nóos Institute (an organization presided by Urdangarin and that is dedicated "to investigate processes of formulation and implementation of sponsorship strategies, patronage and social responsibility").

The PSOE deputy emphasized that the high cost of the event doesn’t even correspond to its relevance, nor does the "little" repercussion of its conclusions and he complained against the Executive of Jaume Matas for spending 1,2 million euros on this.

Iñaki Urdangarin announced, at the closing session of the Forum that the initiative will repeated on November 21st of this year.

Why are there security problems? Because Cristina goes to a lot of places in Spain and there aren't news about her security

I do not believe that there are problems, it is the habitual process, before any act of the Royal Family, the safety members check everything. The news is of a local newspaper, of the zone where it is going to be the act.
