in particular, for example, one of her main jobs on is the official state opening of parliament. that's when the parliamentary session in the u. k. begins and she is always present, but this year she didn't do it and has some prince charles was there instead of that was a big marker, i think for the fact that she really is, i'm beginning to withdraw much more from her public life. so we are going to see her over the next 4 days, but we don't know exactly what we will see of her that the, the palace has not been able to confirm that. and, but we will see her, at least in part in the future. we will see much more. prince johnson, also his son, prince william, now look alive, pictures here best tens of thousands of people are lining the streets of london a beautiful day like this, of course. but the public image of the royal has suffered. there is no denying that in the last couple of years quickly how much enthusiasm is left in the bridge public. i think there is enormous as she is yet from for the queen. she is seen as person a person of duty. she has always put her robe before eve

example, she delegated to her son, one of the key constitutional roles of the monic, the state opening of parliament, raising a lot of questions about how much she was going to be able to get involved in. but we have seen her to day, we are expecting her to make more parents is going forward. all right, thank you for that. that. the w correspondent, i shall have chosen co in london. is reminder of our top stories of this. i usher, force is a stopping up there offensive and the key city of severe done yet can easton ukraine. cave says about 80 percent of the sixty's now under russian control with russian troops already in the city center. coming up next in dw news asia. the top wrap stuff enforcing a ban on opium, pompey cultivation. many farmers saves the only crop as a safe and from poverty. look at hack delivery, right. as in india, i risking death to complete food orders. i food deliveries in under 10 minutes. promise. you will have those stokers add more in just a moment and i'll be back at the top of the hour with well, i'm good with with lash on the free climb. here. there, hitch with grenades

and we know that she had to pull out of a number of occasions, most notably the opening state opening of parliament last month where her son had to step in on her behalf. she also had cove it earlier this year and we've had from the palace that she has episode, episodic mobility problems. so we'll have to see how much we're role she plays. but of course people will want to catch a glimpse of her at any moment possible. but many were wet by remind as well as you say, she's 96 years old. i think she can be forgiven for perhaps taking a little bit more easy than she has in the past. absolutely. an age to be proud of . the w correspondent, charlotte chelsea pill. thank you so much. now the queen is known to love dogs, especially corgis and in honor of her platinum jubilee. one group of women in london have taken some missing toy corgis to mark this special occasion d. w berg at mass reports. mm. for most brits, she's always been part of their lives. queen elizabeth the 2nd and now she celebrating her platinum jubilee. 70 years of rule. a record there's a determination about had to put on the smile on t

the cenotaph a few years ago, the state opening of parliament a few weeks ago and now trooping the colourbeing head of state, the red boxes and so on, but the messages, both visual and written is about the future, even as we celebrate the past. a written message last night talked about her confidence in the future and i think we can assume that it is a reference to her confidence in the future of the monarchy, as it will be in the hands of prince charles and then of course, prince william. they think it is important to use thejubilee to reinforce the message. fix, it is important to use the jubilee to reinforce the message. a brief messaue to reinforce the message. a brief message about — to reinforce the message. a brief message about the _ to reinforce the message. a brief message about the duke - to reinforce the message. a brief message about the duke of- to reinforce the message. a brief| message about the duke of york? to reinforce the message. a brief - message about the duke of york? he: will not message about the duke of york? he will not be at the service of thanksgiving at st pa

we saw the prince of wales represent his mother at the state opening of parliament, another major occasionis one too, so i think transition is a good word for it, but he's not being a replacement. he's representing her. and i'm intrigued that there hasn't been a suggestion of there being a regency. in other words when the monarch continues, but because they are no longer able to carry out their duties to the same level, the person who's due to succeed when they die fills in for them. exactly. part of that might be because everybody feels, the queen herself, particularly, that she's not completely incapacitated, as happened, for example, with george iii, when he was seriously ill and the person who became actually george iv, his son and heir became the prince regent, so they haven't gone down that path at the moment. perhaps they remember the history of it because he wasn't a terribly popular figure when he was regent, was he? no, he was not. and in those days, the monarch had more political power, and he didn't use it in ways that were particularly impressive. but i think it's also to do w

we have obviously had prince charles sit in for the queen at the state opening of parliament the otherr events and engagements and members of the royalfamily like prince charles stepping forward with them i think that is a deliberate thing. the queen obviously wants people to welcome prince charles asking when he becomes king and she has obviously made clear her intention that she thinks that camilla should become queen. i that she thinks that camilla should become queen.— become queen. i wonder if we have sort of seen — become queen. i wonder if we have sort of seen now— become queen. i wonder if we have sort of seen now the _ become queen. i wonder if we have sort of seen now the most active i sort of seen now the most active period we are going to see of the queen for the rest of her rain. i wonder if she is going to be more of an absence than a presence at a lot of events. she had that flurry since last year of events like opening a scottish parliament in the rest of it where she was very visible but she was taking the next two generations along with her each time. i thought she do

behalf on behalf of the nation, and now of course, he's opened parliament and it may well be because of the mobility issues, that the queen may not be able to attend stateh case, obviously, he'll continue to deputize. and i think it's extremely important that the queen on the eve of the actual 70th birthday in the year was her wish she felt camilla should be queen consort. i think that smooths charles' path and i think he's known as someone who has done a great well deal with the prince's trust and environment and obviously had many, many years of apprenticeship in this job and i think he and william are working as a team. so i think that's something that's very, very important because on the balcony, with the queen's second appearance on thursday, what we saw was 18 working members of the royal family and that is its future. i think it's in good hands. aishah: i hope so. nick, at the end of the day, this is not just a monarchy firm as we call it, it is a family and much has been different attention to what's been happening behind the scenes, some of it happening in front of the cameras, between prince william, prince harry, kate and meghan. let's talk

he replaced the queen at the state open in parliament last month, which was seen by quite a lot of people as heralding a change, a new era beginning. i mean, we are seeing the queen. we are going to see her on the balcony today. we're going to see her at the beacon ceremony this evening. but her public appearances are really, they are dwindling. i mean, the last overseas tour she did was in 2015 to malta. she hasn't traveled since then. prince charles is becoming more and more prominent, and there is a feeling it -- it'd be wrong to say there is a feeling a transition is starting to take place. the queen is still going to be the queen, obviously, but prince charles will adopt a more prominent role. when we talk about the queen's age, she's 96, her mother lived to be 101. among those being honored in the queen's birthday honors today is a woman of 104. so this queen may still have more occasions like this to come. >> she is tough, and she is resilient. there is certainly no question about that. mike barnicle, we were talking with suzanne a minute ago about the scope of history this queen h
