Queen
Máxima is the only Dutch national on Time magazine’s new list of the most
influential people in the world.
Máxima, who is Argentine by birth, was
described as an ‘envoy for opportunity‘. She is included in Time’s list of
leaders, which also includes Barack Obama, Vladimir Putin, Angela Merkel and Donald Trump.
‘With her firm grasp of the
technical issues, political savvy and boundless energy, queen Máxima has
masterfully used her role as the UN secretary-general’s special advocate,’ Time
says.
The magazine praises her ’empathy and her easy laughter to cajole,
encourage and support decision makers—from the hallowed halls of the
financial-standard-setting bodies in Basel, Switzerland, to the female leaders
of savings groups in rural villages’.
A survey by RTL news on Tuesday showed
Máxima is the most popular member of the Dutch royal family.
