waiting in that most peculiar of cues the line of royal succession at an age at which most people would be retired or retiring. king charles, the 3rd is finally doing what he was born to do. time will tell what sort of monarch he will be. but greeting the public like he did at buckingham palace on friday was a warm and open way to start than his 1st address to the nation. as sovereign. as the queen herself did with such unswerving devotion, i to now solemnly pledged myself throughout the remaining time, god groan submit to uphold the constitutional principles at the heart of our nation . and wherever you may live in the united kingdom, or in the realms and territories across the world, and whatever may be your background or beliefs,

i shall endeavor to serve you with loyalty, respect, and love. as i have wrote my life as enthusiastically as charles has been welcomed, britain is still a country in national mourning for a queen, loved by millions. it will be a challenge for the new king to equal disaffection and reverence. since thursday evening crowns had been coming to pay their respects to elizabeth. as with the death of prince philip last year, the ro family tried to discourage people from bringing flowers down to the gates of buckingham palace. they are saying that if you do, you'll be guided elsewhere to one of the parts to put your flowers. there will you can see that message has not gone through the accuser stretching all the way up the road past the palace. he can't hold the people back each with their own personal reasons for coming. please keep walking up on your left hand side to call you or spoke to the coin. allow your flowers. it's a very sad day. i've only known the queen, ma'am. my mother was

a refugee after the holocaust, and she came here in 1946 and was here for the queen. married and when she was crowned and, and we've always been really grateful to this country and for her great leadership with flowers. my dad is amazing. thank you very much. i remember i turned it off by not hospital in south africa. there was a year where by she came to south africa. i was, there's a student nature just such a big day for everyone in south africa. you know, i and mandela day, and i just such a big day for everyone. the decree, nothing less come to south africa. royal successions are all about continuity. even so, this is one of those few clear hinges in time where an established era is left behind . and a new one begins will reach alan's al jazeera london ne barker was outside buckingham palace and says king charles, the 3rd speech was an inclusive message for the world. this also caused the most

important speech, all formerly prince charles his life. now king charles, he was tasked with the responsibility of summing up the mood of the nation, but also mourning the loss of his mother as the head of the royal family as well. time here in the u. k is measured slightly differently to other parts of the world, not just in days, months and years, but in iraq is an epoch. some use the phrase end of an era for a loosely often. but in this case, it really genuinely is the end of an era, the end of the 2nd elizabeth in age. and we all know, of course, that after 70 years on the throne, this isn't going to be something that king charles will be able to replicate. but what he hinted at in his speech is that he will be a continuity monarch. he said that he wanted to carry on many of the value traditions that his mother had embodied and preserved for so many years. and that almost hinted at the possibility that he was very aware of,

some of the control sees that the world family had been mired in the past. and that was the clear distinction between what the role was as a prince of wales and what the world role now is as the sovereign. another thing that really stood out was that he said he wanted to serve people of all backgrounds and all beliefs realizing, of course, that this is a modern country, a diverse country. and if the rural family wants to remain relevant for many years to come in east to be representative of all of that diversity across the u. k. cannons fired $96.00 shots marking each year of the queen's life. ah, bells also told and cathedrals and churches as part of a long planned series of events. people in britain are observing 10 days of national mourning for their longest serving monarch rob

madison has been outside bell moral castle and scotland, where the queen's body remains. but mold counsel is at the heart of the world family, and it was that deeply at the heart of queen elizabeth the 2nd. she came here as a young girl and continued to spend her summers here pretty much all the way through her life. it is a place that the royal family regards as private, as relaxing very often. the family was seen out walking around the grounds with very little security. already were seen driving through the streets of the local villages and talking to local people, which very much endeared them to the local community and made the community feel that they were very protective of the royal family. the coffin for the cream of remains. here i tell them all, but it will be on the son of transferred to holy root of hollis light. at that point, the later good procession to the royal mile in which i didn't go up to the st. joe's ephito, which is to put the body, has been to rest briefly before it is transferred to london and buckingham palace

on health to rest there ahead of the funeral arrangements it occurred to be carried carried out there. but in the meantime, people still held them to balboa, capital gross, still intending to pay their respects to the only monica, many of them have ever known. parts of british life that have remained unchanged for decades will now be transformed to mark the reign of king charles the 3rd. for the 1st time in 70 years, the national anthem will switch from god save the queen to god save the king. charles will also replace his mother on new coins, bank notes, and stamps. it's traditional for the new monarch to face the opposite direction to their predecessor. so charles's image will face left because the queen faced right . and the royal cipher will change. that's the monogram used on everything from mailboxes to police uniforms. currently, it features the queen, stamp below an image of the saint edwards crown. there will also be legal changes. senior lawyers will become the king's council rather than queen's counsel. and the

government will change from her majesty's to his majesty's government. in his many decades as prince of wales, charles was a controversial figure. unlike the queen made no effort to hide his views on the climate and other issues. and as sonya geico explains, the new king's political leanings may have an impact on his reign. he has been waiting for the longest time. there has never been any doubt of prince charles's desire to become king. but the share span of his mother's reign has left him becoming king charles at relatively advanced years himself. and charles may cause a will controversial figure as head of state. the queen elizabeth the 2nd did married 1st to diana spencer. he began having an affair with camilla parker bowles before diana's tragic death. that in itself was of public relations problem. diana died so tragically, in 1997. the challenge was how does he intervene,

come at rehabilitate camina, who was his mistress? and the answer to that was years of painstaking work, emphasizing her good qualities. the fact that she had them, he had so much in common like a law together they were similar ages had similar favours of to him. and the prince well purchased a wealth of cold up kate charles's seeming detachment perceived aloofness, have frequently led to accusations that he is out of touch with his subjects. and that will matter far more once he takes the throne, creating sustainable foods. but there are other concerns too many years. he has been writing private letters to government ministers, urging their interest in political issues close to his heart. these range from medicines, homeopathy, which is a favorite to fish stocks, to the power of corporations, of a farmers convention, states that members of the royal family also bidden to express political opinions.

when reporters have tried to ask his a literally behaving on prostitution, the violence exactly like that. so it's king. will he be able to keep his opinions to himself, too much by tradition, the prime minister, visits the monarch every week to tell her all him what's going on in government. it's only supposed to be an exercise in explaining policy and no more. a key question surrounding charles is rain is whether he will reserve the right to tell the prime minister exactly what he thinks about decisions being taken by elected politicians. government has been closed. we don't know the details of the conversations, but even know the remote for that conversation. maybe that has to be opened up. so as you can see, what is a good thing? that's a healthy thing, or maybe there's a, there's a which shouldn't happen from the sound of it. he has been advised to keep quiet. he knows very well what is expected of him as king. he has strong views on

things in national life. that's true, but i think he's also got a very strong awareness from an early age, from the queen and from his own training and his own judgment. that is a constitutional monarch. you have to be a little bit more circumspect and i'm sure that he will be as a woman, you cornel charles and also li, behind an enormous business empire in the south west of england. it's worth more than a $1000000000.00 and has been accused of helping drive local traders out of business . and that perhaps is a particular concern for supporters of the monarchy. which as of now, is a large majority in the u. k. the question is whether he can maintain that popularity. queen elizabeth kept her support during many years when the behavior of her family raised many eyebrows. the code of the richmond. and it does. and it's an arguable that in terms of the brand of the house of charles as son william and his

wife katherine, are seen as a more exciting proposition, more glamorous than a man who seems often to prefer his own company to that of others. charles has no doubt had many years to dwell on these things. his choices will help determine whether support for the moloch. he continues as it is now the world. so any guy, yeah, go al jazeera. still ahead on al jazeera south korea's annual harvest festival returns . but the high cost of living dampens celebrations and models, designers and celebrities flocked to the big apple for new york fashion. ah hello, welcome to look at the international forecast whether sludgy quite across much of

change their constitutions to refer to king charles the 3rd is head of state. all the caribbean countries have indicated they want to become republics. barbados became one in 2021. some have called for reparations from the u. k for slavery referendums on removing the monarch had been held in australia, st. vincent and the grenadines and 2 below. but none have passed. ill. parson, a former ambassador of trinidad, and tobago to the us, and mexico says the future of the commonwealth will depend on how the new king carries out his duties. not just time to date. why the why the caribbean reaction death has been, you know, reasonably mixed. i'm positively up water via many of the lead doesn't matter. i got my name in the morning between death. we still have 8 countries of the carbon region. so you have to recognize that we want to know. i think if you chose all of the monarchy the carbon region is the 2 men of the common law,

i think it will be to run by the type of leadership exhibited by charles he. i think he will be, it will be challenged somewhat by the who i've been dependent on many of the countries become a republic with the referendum and jurisdiction lead significant opposition to the present situation. i think, you know, more recently that's kind of in the middle them on the top of these jamaica bahama bucket march of 2022. it will be left to be seen how these countries react to be passing in subsequent. you know, the all the think many of them know that should do respect to the queen. but also many believe grenada, jamaica, many of us, i expect the intention to assume the whole of becoming republic.

try to blunt the ukrainian offense. now there's also a new report out from the world bank and the european commission saying that ukraine will need up to $349000000000.00 to rebuild the country. that's been devastated from this war. and that amount of money is likely to go up in the coming months as the war continues. the u. a nuclear watchdog says more shelling has destroyed power infrastructure in the ukrainian city where staff operating this apparition, nuclear power plant live, the i. e a has been warning of a growing threat to the plant. there has been fighting around the facility for days . the plants offside power lines which would prevent a potential nuclear meltdown have already been cut. the head of the i. e. a says shelling at the plant must stop. the shelley is putting in danger operators and their families, making it difficult to adequately stuff the plant. together. these has

experiencing with vegetable prices up more than a quarter compared with last year. i did today, you're out looking for the humble cabbage. the essential ingredient for kim cheese, you could find yourself paying 3 times as much as lost yourself. oh, we've raised our price is like every one else and people are buying lease. the price of cooking oil has gone up a 100 percent and other ingredients, some more expensive. we feel bad, but it's a difficult time for every one right now. very aware of the importance of this festival, the government has been trying to increase the food supply. i'm looking at different ways of keeping prices down, so that hard press shoppers badly in need of a holiday. don't blame them for an unhappy to soc. the economy may be slowing down, but that's not stopping americans from dressing up despite supply chain issues and inflation. sales of clothes have gone up. kristen salumi reports from new york
