Queen Silvia on Thursday to Expressen about Leonore:
- That's how it is. It's about a young child, and a worried mother. And grandmother too. Of course, then you have to consider the small child.
She continues to regret that Madeleine had to cancel her trip.
- It is a shame! Princess Madeleine has really been very active in this arrangement. She'd love to come here. But if you have responsibilities you have them.
The queen told already on Wednesday that she wasn't going to attend at the ThankYou Festival.
- I'm going home instead. I'll take a holiday. I very much look forward to seeing the family now.
Will you go straight to Öland?
- Well, we will be traveling a bit more first.
You long o see Madeleine and Leonore?
- Yes, I look very much forward to.
Sweden's ambassador Björn Lyrvall about the Queen in Washington:
- The Queen is very talented and sought-after speaker. It was seen in the Senate yesterday. It was dead silent when the queen spoke. And big applause afterwards.
Silvia seems very pleased with the reception that Childhood got during her days in Washington.
- Yesterday I met with many senators, and listened to what they had to say. There have been many interesting meetings. I myself speak mostly about "child protection". I find that many organizations here do a fantastic job. "But what?", You ask yourself. What happens after you have saved the kids survive? This is where our work with Childhood comes into the picture.
Once signed, put away the tape recorder and Expressen photographer Axel Oberg holds out a microphone makes the Queen a surprised my.
- Is there TV on Expressen also? I'm learning it. Expressen.se, says Silvia interested.
