The visit of Charles III and his wife, Camilla, to France will take place close to September 20, and will include a stop in Bordeaux on the twenty-second of it.

The Sud Ouest newspaper reported Sunday that King Charles visit The third for France will take place in September, after it was postponed at the end of March due to the risk of violence erupting in the midst of protests against reforming the French pension system.

Announcement

In response to a question by Agence France-Presse, the Elysee refused to comment on this state visit, which includes, according to the “Sud Ouest,” two stops in Paris and Bordeaux.

On March 24, French President Emmanuel Macron was forced to announce the postponement of the visit of the British king, just two days before his arrival. At the time, France witnessed the ninth day of demonstrations opposing the reform of the pension system, while a tenth day of protests was scheduled to take place during the state visit.

And on that day, Downing Street mentioned that France had requested the postponement of this trip, which would have been the king’s first official stop abroad since his accession to the throne.

According to “Sud Ouest”, the visit of Charles III and his wife Camilla to France will take place close to September 20, to include a stop in Bordeaux on the twenty-second of it.
