United States President Joe Biden has arrived in London, UK, ahead of Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral.

On Sunday, he is expected to pay tribute at her coffin and will later join King Charles III and dozens of other world leaders for a reception ahead of Monday’s grand state funeral. 

The queen’s body has been lying in state at Westminster Hall since Wednesday.

Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, and New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, who was seen curtsying to the coffin, are among the dignitaries who have paid their respects.

On Saturday evening, the queen’s eight grandchildren, including Charles’s sons Princes William and Harry, held a solemn vigil at her coffin’s side, following a similar observance by her children the previous day.
