President Joe Biden, Emmanuel Macron And Foreign Guests Arriving At Westminster Abbey For Queen Elizabeth II Cemetery

JAKARTA - United States President Joe Biden was accompanied by Jill Biden's wife, as well as French President Emmanuel Macron and foreign wives and guests arriving at Westminster Abbey.

They joined the British Royal family and representatives of Commonwealth Leaders who had already been present at Westminster Abbey.

British Prime Minister Liz Truss and her husband at Westminster Abbey were also present.

The funeral service, which will start at 11.00 local time, will be attended by senior politicians and former British prime ministers. It appears that former prime minister Tony Blair, John Major, David Cameron, and Boris Johnson are already present.

The Queen's funeral service, which is expected to be attended by 2,000 guests, will begin at Westminster Abbey.

It will be a state funeral, an event usually reserved for kings or queens, who follow strict protocol rules, such as the military procession and lying in the state.

Westminster Abbey, hosting the funeral ceremony, is a historic church where the king and queen of England are crowned, including the Queen's own coronation in 1953.

This church is also where Princess Elizabeth at that time married Prince Philip in 1947.
