Britain's veteran Queen Elizabeth is having trouble walking. For this reason, she will not be present at the traditional opening of the session of the British Parliament starting Tuesday.
The Queen's palace, Buckingham Palace, issued a statement on Monday giving this information. The statement said Elizabeth, 96, made this decision reluctantly in consultation with her doctors.

The Duke of Cambridge will also be present on this occasion.

This is an important event at the beginning of the session. This could not have happened without the Queen. This time Queen Elizabeth has given this responsibility to the Prince of Wales (Prince Charles) and Prince of Cambridge (Prince William). Both of them are UK consultants.
