Good point Humera. salma is doing her part to improve collaboration/relation between Spain and Morocco.~*~Humera~*~ said:I think many of us were pleasantly surprised to see the warmth between Lalla Salma and Queen Sofia during the Spanish state visit in January. Considering the two women hadn't met each other before. Its nice to see they are following up on their first official meeting with this recent visit. Lalla Salma is indeed doing her part to improve her country's relationship with Spain. I knew all she needed was time to assert her presence as someone who could prove an asset to Morocco.
Good for her! and Queen Sofia too.
I like the two women more everytime I see them

One article posted in "King Juan Carlos & Queen sofia thread" said: “Queen Sofia has initiated a visit by Algeria, Mauritania and Morocco, to accompany the projects carried out by the Spanish Agency for International Cooperation (AECI).”
For Salma, I don’t know if she follows (day by day) all projects in Morocco initiated by the foreign aid (like Belgium, Spain), is this the type of projects she carries or she does only accompany first ladies.
loubna2 said:It is strange between the images that I saw on the TV and the photos that have been mailed there is a big difference
On the TV lalla salma seemed embarrassed and very shy, she spoke little, and watched the camera with an anxious look, whereas on the photos she seems relaxed
I don't know if I must believe the photos or the images
lalla salma seems took weight, on the face and on the waist, maybe she is pregnant
isis said:
The takchita that she wearied contrasts too much with the simplicity of the Spanish ladies ; she should wear it for a more prestigious opportunity (or perhaps she doesn't have a lot of opportunity to show hers most beautiful dresses )
rosa said:good remark isis, the kaftan and the jewelries of salma are too sumptuous and doesn't suit for this kind of dinner
it is so strange of one coast the queen so simple and on the other salma dressed like to go to a pomp dinner
abir said:Yes, the dress of the day was ok. But for the dinner, the silver and the big earrings were too much compare to what other ladies wear.
I believe the choice of an evening (day) dress is based on the evaluation of the event … and to me salma choice seems like an over-estimation of the event ... or maybe it’s that way she wants to be, different from others.
About shyness ... it will go by experience and practice. Many politicians/CEO subscribe in theatre clubs to develop communication skills, confidence and how to deal with others.
Anyway, it's not dramatic but it depends on the person … if he/she wants to change to the best.
rosa said:I liked a lot the dressess of day of salma , the beige suit the one red and black are very elegant
when to say that salma plays a role in the reinforcement of the relations between the spain and morocco, I don't see on what that is basis
what salma do is the minimum that a first lady must do, to welcome a first lady who comes in her country
in all countries that the queen sofia visited, she is welcomed with a big smile, and queen sofia is always very agreeable with all those that she meets, not only with salma
queen sofia is a cordial woman that is in her nature
I see your point loubna2 and rosa.loubna2 said:I agree with you on this point, as much I find unjust to criticize lalla salma for her inactivity, as much I find that to say that she participates in the reinforcement of the relations between morocco and spain is very exagerrated
abir said:I see your point loubna2 and rosa.
In one way, I agree that the real reinforcement of the relations between Morocco and Spain takes place at many levels: diplomacy, politics, economy, collaboration between politicians, associations of both countries, etc.
In another way, as I said, salma does only "her part" and contribution.
For example, I think it nice when the Spanish first lady is welcomed in Morocco ... and twice within a month.
I read that the Spanish royals’ last visit to Morocco dated more than 20 years ago (if I remember well).
Such lot of years and neighbour royals didn't make a visit to Morocco; it does explain tensions between the two countries/governments in the past.
So, since both countries are looking for a new era and want to renew historical links, so salma welcoming the Spanish queen is just a contribution to all what was put in place by diplomacy.
isis said:I don't like her way to stand up on this photo, lalla salma is slender then I think she can wear less high shoes, what do you think?
