Olena Zelenska is expected to joining some 500 heads of state and foreign dignitaries at the service at Westminster Abbey in London, including President Joe Biden, French President Emmanuel Macros and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, The Sun reported. President Zelensky, who has not left Ukraine since the start of the war with Russia on Feb. 24, won’t be accompanying his wife. “Britain is one of Ukraine’s staunchest allies. (Zelenka’s) presence at the funeral is a sign of that friendship and mutual respect,” an unnamed source told The Sun. Zelenska, 44, is expected return home immediately after the funeral. King Charles III will host a reception for overseas dignitaries at Buckingham Palace on Sunday, the evening before his mother’s state funeral. It will be attended by Britain’s political elite, including new Prime Minister Liz Truss. It won’t be Zelenska’s first time at the monarch’s imposing London residence: in 2020, Ukraine’s president and first lady met with Prince William and his wife, Catherine, during an audience at Buckingham Palace while on a two-day official visit to the UK. Russia, its ally Belarus, and Myanmar have not received invitations to the Queen’s funeral, Whitehall sources said. Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov previously said that President Vladimir Putin won’t be attending the Queen’s funeral. Zelenska has made several trips outside Ukraine in recent months to rally support for her country’s war effort, including by delivering a fiery speech before the US Congress in July. On Wednesday, Zelenska was the guest of honor of European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen as she delivered a state of the union speech in Strasbourg. NEWS COLLECTED FROM NEW YORK POST.
