Meeting of Prince William with the President of Ukraine
The official agenda carried out an act of the highest relevance by the Dukes of Cambridge, who have been in charge of acting as hosts and representing the Queen before a foreign president.
Prince William’s meeting with the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskyy and his wife Оlena, took place in the Throne Room of Buckingham Palace.
The president and the Ukrainian first lady arrived in London with a ministerial delegation on an official two-day trip to sign an agreement on politics and trade with Boris Johnson,
Both William and Kate, as well as the Ukrainian president and his wife, held the meeting with the proper measures and complying with the protection protocol for covid-19.
The Cambridge meeting was a significant step in his preparation for king. Neither William nor Kate have stopped working for the British crown, during the confinement they did it from home, and now they add more and more commitments to their homework schedule.
Although Queen Elizabeth is leaving more responsibilities to her grandson, this is not the first time that the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have welcomed a foreign ruler. The dukes are usually present at all state dinners, even little George once had an endearing meeting with Barack Obama.
