President Pavel to represent Czechia at King Charles III coronation

President Petr Pavel is set to represent Czechia at the coronation of the UK’s King Charles III in London in May, his spokesperson said on Wednesday. In an unusual move the head of state and his wife Eva Pavlová are due to fly to the British capital on a regular commercial flight with a small entourage.

Over 2,000 people have been invited to the coronation on May 6.

King Charles III sent a letter of congratulations when Mr. Pavel was inaugurated as president in March.
