Photo: Daniel Schwendener / Liechtensteiner Vaterland / Vaterland.li
Hereditary Prince Alois officially bid farewell to Liechtenstein's Olympic athletes this week. Three athletes will represent the Principality at the Winter Games in Pyeongchang: Alpine skiers Tina Weirather and Marco Pfiffner as well as cross country skier Martin Vögeli with Liechtenstein's medal hopes certainly laying with Weirather, who won a silver medal at the World Championships last year.

With its nine medals in Olympic history, Liechtenstein has, in fact, won more medals per capita than any other nation. Not surprisingly for the only nation to lie entirely within the Alps, all of the medals were won in alpine skiing. The first two medals for Liechtenstein were won at the 1976 Winter Olympics. Hanni Wenzel, who later went on two become a double Olympic champion and is actually the mother of Tina Weirather, won a bronze medal in the giant slalom and Willi Frommelt took another bronze medal in the slalom. At the 1980 Lake Placid Games, Hanni Wenzel won two gold and one silver medal with her brother Andreas winning another silver medal for the Principality. Liechtenstein's athletes took home another three bronze medals at the 1984 and 1988 Olympics through Andreas Wenzel, Ursula Konzett and Paul Frommelt.

Hereditary Grand Duke Celebrates Luxembourg for Finance

Photo: Luxembourg for Finance / Luc Deflorenne
Yesterday, Hereditary Grand Duke Guillaume was on hand to celebrate the 10th anniversary of Luxembourg for Finance. The agency was founded as a public/private partnership for the development and promotion of Luxembourg as a financial centre. 

At a press conference held on the occasion Finance Minister Pierre Gramegna said, "As a public-private partnership, LFF can convey messages with a common voice, and thus a much stronger voice than each of the shareholders of LFF would have individually. Over the last 10 years, LFF has been putting into practice a unique approach, which has been developing a dialogue and a lasting relationship rather than focusing on short term results.” The Hereditary Grand Duke has been a long-time ambassador for Luxembourg for Finance often joining them on their missions abroad.

Liechtenstein New Year's Interviews

Photo: Michael Zanghellini / Liechtensteiner Volksblatt / Volksblatt.li
Hereditary Prince Alois has given the traditional new year's interview to Liechtenstein's newspaper Volksblatt (and presumably also to Vaterland) while his father Fürst Hans-Adam II spoke to the country's only radio station, Radio Liechtenstein. In his interview, which is available online under the previous link, the Prince Hans-Adam expressed his confidence in the new year, "We never did as well before, both domestically and internationally." According to the Fürst, the Principality's sovereignity is protected by being a member of international organisations, the people are well educated and innovative, new companies that are internationally competitive are founded each year - so it is only right to be optimistic about the country's future.

The interview with Hereditary Prince Alois isn't available online in its entirety. He spoke about the country's 300th anniversary next year, the challenges faced by the government and what he thinks about a possible deepening of the Rhine river, a Muslim burial ground in the country and the women's quota.
