Yesterday, Easter Sunday, 2020, Andorra’s Cap de Govern, Xavier Espot Zamora, took to the podium to explain the new economic and social measures to be taken to alleviate the consequences of the health crisis. This is a long speech but a very important one, an Easter ‘State of the Union’ address. Apart from anything else it portrays the thinking of our government and also the character of the Andorran people. We, as foreigners, can learn a lot about our country of residence by reading this document… I find him most impressive.
