# King's Commonwealth message of unity in 'uncertain times'

7 days ago

King Charles is to call for unity and building bridges in what he describes as "these uncertain times" of international tension, in a message to mark Commonwealth Day next week.

In the annual message to mark the day on Monday, the King will emphasise the value of nations coming together in a "spirit of support, and crucially, friendship".

The King has become involved in the diplomatic negotiations involving the UK, the US and Ukraine - with the monarch warmly welcoming President Volodymyr Zelensky after the Ukrainian leader's disastrous meeting with US President Donald Trump and with a state visit planned for Trump.

A Commonwealth country, Canada, also faces its own tensions with Trump's administration, as he has called for Canada to become the US 51st state.
