Princess Esmeralda was arrested during a peaceful climate protest in London yesterday. The princess told newspaper L’Echo that she was released in five hours.

People from all walks of life have been arrested due to the Extinction Rebellion protests - the vast majority come from wealthier backgrounds and are older, like Esmeralda. She's done a lot of campaigns for different causes as a royal but it's surprising to see her in a more "physical" protest group like Extinction Rebellion.

I wonder if the police arresting HRH Princess Marie-Esméralda of Belgium, Lady Moncada knew she was a Princess and an aunt of the Belgian King.

I agree with the Princess.

So let's start with Belgium and its brutal colonial past. A formal apology and asking for forgiveness would be nice. Perhaps financial reparations to people of the Congo..that wouldn't be a bad idea either.

[Tatiana Maria]

What criteria qualified the princess to be admitted to the conference, since she is not representing the King?

 

[iceflower]

As she's a freelance journalist and fights for the protection of the environment, women's rights and indigenous peoples since some years now, I think she has a lot of contacts herself and she's independent from any royal orders.

Yesterday, November 9, she spoke at an COP26 event "on GenderDay about climate justice, colonialism & the need for solidarity & sisterhood":
