ROYAL: Victoria und Daniel beim Empfang durch den schwedischen Botschafter in Kopenhagen
Victoria said at her speech in the UN City among others:
In 2016, I had the honour of being appointed by the United Nations’ Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon as an Advocate to promote the Global Sustainable Development Goals.
Today, I am an Advocate Alumni. Working to promote the Goals has been, and is, a most meaningful task – and a great privilege.
One key insight for me, personally, has been the crucial role of innovation in building a better future:
– A future where cities are safe and sustainable.
– Where everyone has the chance to live a healthy life.
– And where safe, nutritious and sufficient food is accessible to all.
Ladies and gentlemen, 2030 is not far away.
If we are to deliver on the Sustainable Development Goals, we need companies that are not just adapting to change, but leading it.
We need companies with the will and the skill to make a true difference.
And we need a closer co-operation between the UN system and private enterprise.
Sweden is already a major donor to the UN system.
Now, it is also becoming an even more active partner in promoting partnerships.
The speech:

Victoria held her speech in swedish, she said among other things:
Prince Daniel and I are proud to travel with a large Swedish delegation, which represents some of the leading companies in Swedish business right now.
We are particularly excited about the opportunity to participate in this particular meeting, focusing on issues that are crucial to everyone's future.
In the transition to a more sustainable development, the business sector has a hugely important role to play.
Ladies and gentlemen. Sweden and Denmark are not only neighbors. We are family. Like all families, there is a measure of competition between us. And so it should be!
We stimulate each other. We learn from each other. But above all, we are strong together.
Our countries have a long common history. And it is with curiosity and great confidence that I look forward to a common - and greener - future.

"Crown Prince talks about his expedition to Greenland. He learned everything takes place on the premises of nature, one must align with them. That thought is not met in a big city.
He says the climate crisis will stand out as a lasting change that will also affect future generations.
- The environment and climate are the framework for our entire lives, and if we bend that framework we will feel it today, tomorrow and the future generation.
Good talk by Crown Prince
Speaker has never been Crown Prince Frederik's cup of tea, but our emissary on the site says he is doing really well today.
- Many Danish companies see the green transition as an opportunity, he says.
He also talks about the State of Green, for which he is patron."

I must confess that I'm a little confused.
I see that they are dining tonight aboard the HMS Nyköping, who is home at the Karlskrona Naval Base.
But there is only one HMS Nyköping (of course) and she is an active corvette.
Belonging to the Visby class, she is one of the major surface vessels in the Swedish navy, incorporating stealth design. (In order to stay even better hidden than is normally possible in the Swedish archipelago.)
Here are two photos of her:
https://www.forsvarsmakten.se/imagev...G_1466_red.jpg
https://live.staticflickr.com/3924/1...a24d02c7_h.jpg
It's just that, very naturally, she is pretty small. Small certainly for a return dinner, as this is basically what it is. And hardly designed for representation.
So I wondered if there is another HMS Nyköping, that I simply haven't found, that is used for representation?
But if it is the corvette, then it's an cost-effective type of representation! She can comfortable sail from Karlskrone to Copenhagen in six hours. She is Swedish territory, even in Copenhagen. So M&F are, as this is written, in Sweden.
No need to book and secure a restaurant in Copenhagen. Discretion is top. And she is moored right next to Amalienborg, so M&F can stroll home with V&D tonight if it isn't raining.
ADDED:
There is likely an added explanation for using HMS Nyköping.
The Danish navy is expanding these years, not least in the Arctic and in regards to international missions far from DK. We currently have five major ships very busy fulfilling those roles. (The latest British class of frigates to be build are based on the Danish BTW.)
The novelty of this Swedish design might very well be a wish of promoting Swedish naval technology. This stealth technology may be useful in the arctic, where hiding among icebergs and floating ice sheets may be an advantage.

Thanks.
Ah, a reception. There should be ample accommodation for that aboard the corvette.
So this is promoting Swedish naval technology.

It was very clearly written at the visit's program at the website of both courts, that there would be a reception at HMS Nyköping, and shortly after that the dinner ambassador Fredrik Jörgensen and his wife host, the crown princess couple and crown prince couple as honorary guests.

My apologies for being absentminded.
Anyway, in order to board HMS Nyköping, they had to walk up a scaffolding, rather than a phalarope, which isn't a part of a stealthy warship.
Here is a photo of M&F and V&D doing just that:
https://images.scribblelive.com/2019...f7ded26be3.jpg
The ship and boarding arrangement. Presumably set up so that the royals could board the ship without being exposed to the rain and the cold wind.

ADDED:
A BB video:
Pallets and stilettos?!?
Perhaps the phalarope malfunctioned?
There is always some sort of mishap on any such visits.

It's been great to see the Danish and Swedish CP couples together - this visit has been a treat for us royal watchers!
