World leaders put differences aside for Queen’s funeral
In a rare occasion, world leaders are expected to come together for Queen Elizabeth’s funeral, despite their differences
There are very few people in the world who can bring countries together, to put their differences aside. However, Queen Elizabeth II is the exception.
World leaders will unite for Her Majesty’s funeral, even if it’s only momentarily.
Her Majesty’s funeral will be a sombre day for millions, despite nationality or location.
World leaders are set to put their differences aside, to remember the longest-reigning monarch.
The Queen’s funeral will be the most important gathering of world leaders since J.F. Kennedy’s funeral in 1963.
The funeral will be held at Westminster Abbey, in London. In what is set to be one of the UK’s biggest police operations in history.
The security detail of this moment has been planned for years, with patrol on the ground and snipers in the sky.
Strict rules for world leaders
There are strict rules for world leaders attending the funeral, and will most likely be rules they’re not accustomed to.
British authorities have put a ban on private jets and have advised world leaders to use commercial planes instead.
They have also advised against private cars and will instead organise for leaders to be bussed to the funeral.
Numbers for each leader are limited to the head of state or their designated representative and significant other.
Air Force One will carry U.S. President Biden, yet there’s no word if Former President Trump will get an invite.
September 19, 2022 will be a day like no other, when differences are momentarily put to rest, to pay respect to Queen Elizabeth II.
The coffin will travel from Westminster Hall to Westminster Abbey on the State Gun Carriage of the Royal Navy.
King Charles III and key members of the royal family will walk behind the coffin.
Her Majesty will be laid to rest in the royal vault, beside her mother and father and her sisters ashes.
And at last, Her Majesty will be reunited with her husband, Prince Philip.

SpaceX plans a $25 billion IPO in 2026, potentially valuing the company at over $1 trillion.
Elon Musk’s SpaceX is preparing to raise over $25 billion through an initial public offering in 2026. The move could value the space exploration company at over $1 trillion, fueled by its Starlink internet network and Starship rocket programme.
The IPO discussions are underway with major banks, targeting a launch around June or July. This comes as the IPO market experiences a revival after a three-year slowdown, attracting attention from both institutional and retail investors.
SpaceX is currently the second most-valuable private startup after OpenAI. While investors are excited, some remain cautious about Musk’s ability to manage multiple high-profile companies simultaneously.

Trump admin proposes tourists disclose social media profiles for security under visa waiver program, impacting 42 countries.
The Trump administration has proposed new rules requiring tourists visiting the United States under the visa waiver program to disclose their social media profiles. This applies to citizens from countries including Australia, the UK, and France, who would need to provide five years of social media history.
The requirement specifically targets travelers using the Electronic System for Travel Authorization (ESTA), which covers 42 countries. US Customs and Border Protection says the move is necessary to enhance national security.
Public comments on the proposal will be open for 60 days, and full implementation could take several months. It’s still unclear whether private messages would be included or if only public profiles are required.
