On December 24, 2025, Grand Duke Guillaume of Luxembourg delivered his first Christmas address as Head of State. In his message, he emphasized the importance of cohesion and unity within the country. The Grand Duke delivered his address in front of a portrait of his wife, Grand Duchess Stéphanie, which was painted to mark his accession to the throne.
Through the symbols of Christmas, the Grand Duke conveyed a message of unity and collective responsibility, recalling the need to care for the most vulnerable and the importance of living together in a complex national and international context.
Finally, the Head of State announced the organization of five “Joyeuses Entrées” in 2026 and 2027. Rooted in tradition, these official visits across the country’s regions aim to strengthen the closeness between Grand Duke Guillaume, Grand Duchess Stéphanie, and the citizens, while highlighting local dynamism.
Waouh, je ne crois pas me rappeler de l’avoir vu aussi élégant !
ردحذفUne jolie présentation pour cette vidéo avec les musiciens et le joli sapin bien décoré. Le discours est intéressant (son équipe a très bien travaillé !), les idées sont bien trouvées pour faire le parallèle avec les lumières de Noël, les cadeaux, le partage, la famille, etc. Il s'exprime très bien, dans plusieurs langues, et sans jamais bafouiller. Impeccable ! Paloma.
ردحذفOf course the Grand Duke must consult his government when giving official speeches, but I am sure he was perfectly capable of developing his own ideas for this Christmas address, as opposed to what you assume.

Merci Virginia. S'il écrit lui-même son texte, bravo, c'est encore mieux, j'ai beaucoup apprécié ce qu'il a exprimé.
حذفMais il me semble que tous (rois, chefs d'état, ministres, etc.) lisent des textes écrits par d'autres. C'est ce qui se dit en tout cas. P.
His suit fits him well, he seems to prefer blue as does William
ردحذفHe looks nice in blue, his suit fits well.
ردحذفWhat language is he speaking?
ردحذفI believe it is Luxembourgish.

The language is called Letzebourg(ish). It is how they pronounce it. It is a mix of Dutch, French and German words and typical words for their language. Luxembourg (the state) is called Letzebourg in their language.
حذفMaybe it is because it is his first Christmas speech, but the other speeches by King Philippe of the Belgians and King Willem Alexander of the Netherlands were interesting too. Never know they were published on this blog. And King Charles new year's speech ? Maybe we should consult the websites of the Royal houses or of the most important news papers of the different countries.
ردحذفwhat about Charles and Carl Gustafs speeches?
ردحذفNice looking suit and well fitting. I wish he grow his beard again, he looks great with it.
