King Felipe and Queen Letizia launched their agenda for the new year with the deeply traditional “Pascua Militar” events at the Royal Palace in Madrid.

During the ceremonies, the King meets with service members and addresses military leaders at the throne room.

Toward the end of the deeply traditional event, the crowd cheers for Spain and the King.

Since last week, the King and Queen have met with several groups and associations at Zarzuela Palace.

Today the King traveled to Portugal for the funeral of former President Mário Alberto Lopes Soares.
