Monarchs, presidents and prime ministers from around the globe will travel to pay their respects to the Queen who reigned for seven decades. 💬 “Olena Zelenska’s presence is yet another sign of the global support for Ukraine while Russia is isolated.”
Which foreign leaders are attending the Queen’s funeral? The guests explained from Olena Zelenska to Joe Biden
“Olena Zelenska’s presence is yet another sign of the global support for Ukraine while Russia is isolated,” a source told. “Britain is one of Ukraine’s staunchest allies. Her presence at the funeral is a sign of that friendship and mutual respect.” New Zealand’s Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern speaks during a Proclamation of Accession ceremony for Britain’s King Charles III at the Parliament in Wellington on September 11
US President Joe Biden and French President Emmanuel Macron are among the most high-profile guests from overseas who have confirmed they will attend, along with Germany’s president, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and President of India Droupadi Murmu. China’s invitation has proved controversial after a group of British politicians demanded China’s representatives are barred from visiting the queen’s body lying in state in protest against China’s treatment of the mainly Muslim Uighur community in Xinjiang.
