Kongen bliver på tronen, så længe han kan

Kong Carl 16. Gustaf fylder 80 år på torsdag, men bliver siddende på tronen. "Så længe jeg kan overkomme det," fortæller han til Svenska Dagbladet. Han roste også kronprinsesse Victorias ambitioner.

Kong Carl 16. Gustaf har erklæret, at han ikke har nogen planer om at abdicere i den nærmeste fremtid. Op til sin 80-års fødselsdag på torsdag sagde han til Svenska Dagbladet: "Så længe jeg kan overkomme det".

Spørgsmålet om kongens fremtid er blevet stillet hyppigere, siden dronning Margrethe af Danmark abdicerede for over to år siden og overlod tronen til kronprins Frederik, som nu er konge.

Kongen beskrev kronprinsesse Victoria som "ambitiøs". Da han blev spurgt, om han selv er ambitiøs, svarede han: "Hun er endnu mere ambitiøs. Forbereder sig grundigt på forskellige områder. Senest som officer i forsvarets forskellige værn. Det er stærkt."
