Romania welcomes Belgian royals

Belgium's King Albert II and Queen Paola began a three day State Visit to Romania on Tuesday.

The royal couple, who just celebrated their golden wedding anniversary, were greeted at the Cotroceni presidential palace by President Traian Basescu.

Basescu is nearing the end of his presidential term. One of the contenders for his job is the son in law of Romania's former King Mihai (Michael), Prince Radu.
