King Charles will not attend COP27, the UN climate conference due to be held in Egypt in November, Buckingham Palace has confirmed.
There had been speculation that the King, a passionate campaigner on environmental issues, would attend the event in Sharm el Sheikh, making it his first overseas trip since becoming monarch.
The confirmation that he will not go comes after reports that Prime Minister Liz Truss and No 10 advisors had told the King he should not attend. But Sky News understands from palace sources that any suggestions his attendance was a point of disagreement is categorically untrue and that the decision not to attend was agreed in consultation.
It is understood there is still discussion about whether he can show his support for the climate conference in other ways.Advertisement
