President Pahor to attend funeral of Queen Elizabeth II

Ljubljana – President Borut Pahor will represent Slovenia at the funeral of the late Queen Elizabeth II in London on Monday, his office announced on Wednesday. During the funeral, the flag will be lowered to half-mast in front of the Presidential Palace in Ljubljana between noon and 2pm.

UK Ambassador to Slovenia Tiffany Sadler extended to Pahor King Charles III and the royal family’s invitation to attend the commemorative events on Sunday and Monday in London, as the president received her at Presidential Palace.

The pair agreed to pay tribute to the late monarch in Slovenia in a fitting way in the light of the traditional commemoration of Slovenian-British friendship, in the framework of which British Prince Edward also visited Slovenia in 2019, by lowering the flag to half-mast in front of Presidential Palace for the time of the funeral.
