Everyone says that the ceremony of the coronation of Charles III was designed in the colors of the Ukrainian flag, but is it true?
May 6, 2023 in London occurred Coronation of Prince Charles III. The British Kingdom has been preparing for the celebration for several months, because this has not happened in the last 70 years. How it all went and how this event is connected with Ukraine, we find out later in the article.
The coronation of Prince Charles III took place in Westminster Abbey. And then the ceremony continued, but at Buckingham Palace. The classic climax of such events is the King, along with the Queen and members of the royal family, greeting people on the balcony of Buckingham Palace.
When events of this magnitude occur in England, crowds of onlookers gather in the center of the capital in advance. It is necessary to take the most convenient places to watch the coronation. It doesn't happen every day!
GettyImages All the actions of the king and queen are written literally in minutes. They first made their way to Westminster Abbey on a special carriage. It is said that this ancient vehicle is very uncomfortable. Its length is almost 5 meters, and it weighs as much as 3 tons. There are 6 horses in the team, otherwise the oak carriage will not budge.
Upon arrival at the Abbey, Charles III made a solemn speech and coronation oath. The king promised to defend his country, whatever the cost. Then came the anointing of the throne and the transfer of all regalia to the king. Charles was sitting on the coronation chair, which was made in 1300! And at this moment he is given a special robe of golden fabric, a crown is put on his head and a sword is handed over. We need him to do justice.
After that, the eldest son, Prince William, also swore allegiance to the king. It was one of the most touching moments at the ceremony. Queen consort Camilla was also crowned. She was crowned by the great-grandmother of King Charles, Queen Mary.
The coronation was accompanied by a parade of military, not only of Great Britain, but also of friendly countries. The new king and queen were welcomed by the Royal Air Force. Tens of hundreds of people in the street applauded Charles III.
Almost the entire royal family attended the coronation ceremony (Megan Markle was unable to attend), as well as about 2,200 others. These are politicians from around the world, celebrities, other royals.
Politicians from Russia, Belarus, Syria, Afghanistan, Iran, Venezuela and Myanmar were not invited to the ceremony. Ukraine at the coronation was represented by the first lady of the country, Elena Zelensky. She came with Prime Minister Denis Shmygal.
During the ceremony, everyone noticed a very remarkable decoration of the coronation hall. The floor was covered with carpets of blue and yellow colors. Of course, the first association is the state flag of Ukraine. Is it even here that Britain has indirectly decided to support the Ukrainian people?
In Buckingham Palace, it is said that it is A happy coincidence. This choice of colors is explained simply. Yellow and blue perfectly harmonize with the outfits of the king and queen.

Jill Biden sat with Elena Zelensky during the coronation. And in her social networks, the first lady of America put up a photo with the wife of the President of Ukraine and wrote words of support: “We stand with Ukraine.”
The next day, May 7, the people of Great Britain continued to celebrate the joyous event. On the occasion of the coronation of Charles and Camilla staged a loud concert, which was performed by many world stars. For the king and queen, Katy Perry, Lionel Richie, Ollie Merce and Paloma Faith sang.
GettyImages Paying tribute to tradition is the most important thing for the English. And this applies not only to members of the royal family, but also to the people themselves. Lunches and street parties were also held throughout the country.
Being a monarch in the twenty-first century is not an easy task. For Charles III, the man is 74 years old. The coronation was the culmination of his accession to the throne. And before receiving the coveted crown, he went a long thorny way.
We welcome the new King of Great Britain and wish him a long life!
