King Charles Cancels Important Upcoming Event After Announcing He Halted Chemotherapy

King Charles is dialing his busy diary back after reportedly pausing chemotherapy, and one of the engagements to sadly go is the Cop29 summit taking place in Azerbaijan this November.

Knowing the King’s long-time dedication to solving environmental issues, this subtraction from his diary must not have been an easy decision.

King Charles Still Set To Embark On His “Autumn Tour” of Australia and Samoa

On October 9, it was announced that the monarch has decided to cut the Cop29 meeting taking place in Baku, Azerbaijan, on Nov. 11 from his diary. He previously attended last year’s summit in Dubai.

Despite this, the King’s diary is still firmly set on his upcoming tour of Australia and Samoa, which kicks off later this month. He and Queen Camilla will visit select places in the countries from October 18 to October 26.

“This will include a Royal Visit to Australia, State Visit to The Independent State of Samoa and attendance at the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM) 2024,” the statement, released last month, reads. “The King’s visit to Australia will be His Majesty’s first to a Realm as Monarch, whilst the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Samoa is the first The King will attend as Head of the Commonwealth.”

The message adds, “In both countries, Their Majesties’ engagements will focus on themes designed to celebrate the best of Australia and Samoa, as well as reflecting aspects of The King and Queen’s work.”

In January, the King disclosed that he’d been diagnosed of cancer – though the form remains undisclosed – shortly after undergoing surgery for prostate. Soon after, he began his chemotherapy treatments.

However, to allow him to reasonably perform his upcoming tour, his doctors have reportedly allowed him to cease treatments during that time period.

The King’s treatment has been positive thus far, prompting his return to public-facing duties in April.

At the time, the Palace commented, “His Majesty’s medical team are very encouraged by the progress made so far and remain positive about the King’s continued recovery. Forthcoming engagements will be adapted where necessary to minimize any risks to His Majesty’s continued recovery.”
