    King Charles Receives a Standing Ovation After His Historic Speech in the French Senate

    In an unprecedented event, King Charles received a standing ovation after delivering a historic speech in the French Senate. This marks a significant milestone as he became the first British monarch to address the French Senate.

    A Landmark Event in Paris

    King Charles’s visit to Paris was not just any ordinary state visit. As he stood in the French Senate chambers, he emphasized the deep-rooted friendship between the UK and France. According to Mirror, a guard of honour lined the King’s route to the Salle des Conferences. Here, he met representatives from both the Senate and the National Assembly. Before delivering his speech, he took a moment to sign the visitors’ book.

As stated in Town and Country Magazine, the King expressed, “Quite simply, the United Kingdom will always be one of France’s closest allies and best friends.”

    A Nod to Sports and Personal Ties

    King Charles’s speech was not devoid of lighter moments. He made a cheeky reference to the ongoing Rugby World Cup hosted in France and the friendly rivalry between the French and English teams. He also spoke fondly of the Prince and Princess of Wales, mentioning how millions visit each other’s countries, a joy that has been recently rediscovered post-pandemic.

    Paying Tribute to the Late Queen

    The King’s speech was also a poignant moment as he remembered his late mother, Queen Elizabeth. He thanked the French for their condolences and shared how much the kind words meant to him and his family during their time of grief.
