Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia
Vladimir Putin sent the Prince of Walles a telegram in which he said that Her Majesty deserved all the love and respect she received from her subjects, as well as the force and authority she had on a global scale.
He also mentioned that he hopes Charles III will be brave and resilient, especially in this completely depressing time. The Russian President wanted to pay his sincere respects, so he asked the Prince of Walles to pass on his candid condolences and support to the monarch’s family and the entire population of the United Kingdom.
According to some sources, officials from Great Britain stated that they wouldn’t invite any politicians from Russia to attend the Queen’s funeral. Furthermore, the Kremlin added that their president never actually planned to attend the ceremony.
Patricia Scotland, the Secretary General of the Commonwealth
Another important political figure who commented on this tragic event was Patricia Scotland, the Secretary General of the Commonwealth. She said that the monarch absolutely loved the Commonwealth and she received all the love back from them.
During her 70 years of reign, she traveled more than any other sovereign in history, and she managed to visit every single part of their family of nations. She ended her respectful message by saying that all the growth and the energy of the modern Commonwealth is all thanks to the Queen and is a testament to her common sense, experience, guidance, and commitment.
Justin Trudeau, the Prime Minister of Canada
The Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, was also one of the people who were quick to pay their respects to the Queen, a woman who was considered a symbol of strength, diplomacy, and service to the country and the citizens that she deeply loved.
He said that Canada will always consider Her Majesty an important part of their nation’s history. He also stated that she was constantly a significant presence in their lives and that they were deeply saddened by her death.
