Headline: UNCAPTIONED: King Charles to Miss COP29 Climate Conference Due to Ongoing Cancer Treatment and Royal Tour
Caption: King Charles to Miss COP29 Climate Conference Due to Ongoing Cancer Treatment and Royal Tour. King Charles will not attend the COP29 climate conference in Azerbaijan next month, despite being a longstanding advocate for environmental issues and having addressed world leaders at COP28 in Dubai, Sky News reports. The 75-year-old monarch continues to receive cancer treatment, which will be paused for an upcoming 11-day royal tour of Australia and Samoa. The King’s planned visit to New Zealand was canceled on medical advice, and the tour schedule has been adjusted to include more rest time. This tour will be only his second overseas engagement since announcing his cancer diagnosis in February, following his June visit to Normandy for D-Day commemorations. COP29 begins on November 11, just weeks after the King’s return, marking the second time he will miss the summit during his reign, following a government-advised absence from COP27 in 2022.
