Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II was a lifelong friend of the United Nations, present in 1946 at the first meetings of the UN in London, and twice visiting New York HQ.

Today, the UN paid its respects: 193 flags lowered and 🇺🇳 flag at half-mast.

[Aна Брнабић @SerbianPM]

A very sad occasion for a visit to the British Embassy, as the whole world mourns for Her Majesty.

William Shakespeare said that some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.

[British Council @BritishCouncil]

We are deeply saddened to hear about the passing of our Patron, Her Majesty The Queen.

We extend our heartfelt condolences to His Majesty The King and all of the Royal Family at this time of grief.
