King Charles III and Queen Camilla are traveling from Washington, D.C., to New York City for a series of events on the third day of their state visit, including a visit to the 9\/11 Memorial at One World Trade Center and a meeting with first responders.<\/p>\n
New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani will also be in attendance, but Charles and Mamdani will not have a private meeting, the mayor\u2019s team confirmed.<\/p>\n
Charles will then visit a community initiative in Harlem, while Camilla attends an event at the New York Public Library to pay tribute to Winnie-the-Pooh, who turns 100 this year.<\/p>\n
At Tuesday night\u2019s state dinner, Charles brought a jovial tone, joking that President Trump \u201cwould be speaking French\u201d if it were not for the U.K.<\/p>\n
His lighthearted speech referred back to a comment Trump made to European leaders in January about World War II, when he said they would be speaking German if it were not for the U.S.<\/p>\n
Charles joked to a laughing Trump: \u201cDare I say that, if it wasn\u2019t for us, you\u2019d be speaking French.\u201d<\/p>\n
Charles\u2019s comment came after his address to Congress, in which he spoke about the U.S. and the U.K.\u2019s long-held alliance. The rare address was the second time in history that a British monarch had addressed Congress.<\/p>\n
President Trump also held a closed-door meeting with Charles in the Oval Office on Tuesday, amid tense relations between the U.S. and U.K. over the Iran war.<\/p>\n
Charles later returned to the White House for the state dinner, where Trump alluded to Charles\u2019s feelings about Iran in what appeared to violate the convention of not revealing what a monarch has said in a private meeting.<\/p>\n
Trump told the banquet: “We’re doing very well; we have militarily defeated that particular opponent, and we’re never going to let that opponent ever \u2014 Charles agrees with me, even more than I do \u2014 we’re never going to let that opponent have nuclear weapons.”<\/p>\n
The four-day trip will conclude on Thursday, April 30.<\/p>\n
