: Thanks. I had read that clause, but I
: thought
: it did not apply to the King being abroad.
: The Spanish constitution has a similar
: clause, but it is not applied when the King
: is abroad. King Felipe has been absent in
: Japan for a week and no regent has been
: appointed.
: Except Denmark and Sweden, any other
: monarchy where a regent is appointed when
: the monarch is abroad?

: Crown Princess Regent? Is it necessary to
: appoint a regent when the King leaves the
: country like in Denmark?
: I have read the Swedish constitution and I
: have only found: " The Head of State
: shall consult the Prime Minister before
: undertaking travel abroad".
: Maybe I have not read it in another article
: or the requirement is in another law.
: Thanks.

: If you read the following clause you will
: see:
:
: "If the king or queen who is head of
: state are prevented from conduction their
: duty, the member of the royal house -
: following the line of succession - who is
: not prevented will be appointed Temprary
: Guardian of the Realm to conduct the duties
: of the head of state.
:
: If you are abroad, you are
: "prevented" according to this.

: The Crown Princess chaired the Foreign
: Affairs Council before the events:

: The Swedish Crown Princess is not
: "appointed" Regent. She
: automatically takes over the King's duties
: when he is abroad. If both the King and the
: Crown Princess is abroad, Prince Carl Philip
: automatically takes over the King's duties
: since he is the first in line to the throne
: who has reach the age of 18.
:
: If there is no person in line of succession
: over 18, the King's duties is taken over by
: the Speaker of Parliament. I don't think
: that has ever happened. The King doesn't
: want to give people the impression that the
: country can do without the Royals and
: replace the King with a politician as Head
: of State.
