Charles and Camilla Express Joy During Italy Visit

Rome: King Charles and Queen Camilla nodded emphatically when a Mediaset journalist asked them “are you happy to be here” at the Victor Emmanuel (Altar of the Homeland) Monument in Rome on the second day of their four-day state visit to Italy Tuesday. The British royals were met at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier by Defence Minister Guido Crosetto and, after the British and Italian national anthems were played, Charles laid a wreath to the Sardinia Grenadiers regiment.

According to Ansa News Agency, accompanied by Crosetto, Charles inspected 200 Italian soldiers from the army, navy, air force, Carabinieri, and Guardia di Finanza tax corps. After the king laid the wreath, there followed a minute’s silence.
