Prince of Wales, Prince William is set to assume the role of ‘global statesman’ and his surprise trip to Poland was a key staging post for the new position.
The Daily Mail quoted a Kensington Palace spokesman reported: ‘It was important for the Prince to travel to Poland last week to not only recognize the duty of our troops but also to shine a light on the ongoing humanitarian crisis. This is a continuation of the evolution of his role as a global statesman.”
The spokesperson further said, “We talk often about him using his global platform for the good of the environment via Earthshot. But this is the first opportunity for him to take a visit of this kind as Prince of Wales, and given that it is one of the biggest political issues facing every country on the planet, this is a demonstration of his growth as a statesman-like figure.”
Last week, Prince William visited Poland where he met British and Polish troops.
He said, “This afternoon I traveled to Poland to meet British and Polish troops, where I heard about their extraordinary work in support of Ukraine.”
