May 5th marks a significant day in the British royal agenda. On that day, the victory in Europe of World War II is celebrated, and everything is ready to celebrate the 80th anniversary this year. The British eagerly await that day and Buckingham Palace is finishing the details.

Thanks to this message from the Royal House, it is confirmed that Charles III will fulfill the promise he made to the British people. When he announced that he had been diagnosed with cancer, he assured that the illness would not keep him from his responsibilities. While he has had no choice but to slow down, he has been present at events of special significance.
Likewise, he will be present to commemorate the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day of World War II. He will thus reaffirm his commitment to historical memory while showing his respects to those who fought for freedom.
The 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day will be a moving event where world leaders and veterans will gather. All of them will participate in different events such as the military procession and air displays.
Charles III is deeply involved in the most representative events for Buckingham Palace
Despite his cancer treatment, Charles III continues to fulfill his official duties, especially those that hold special significance for Buckingham Palace. The one on May 5th is just a token of the King of England's involvement in those events that commemorate a historical fact.
Thus, Charles III was seen at the anniversary of the Normandy landings in June of last year during his treatment. The king participated publicly and actively in the event and met with numerous leaders.
He also attended the commemorations for the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp in Poland. There, he met with Kings Felipe and Letizia, who spoke with him for a few minutes.
His participation in commemorative events shows his dedication to his responsibilities as head of state. This is a characteristic he wishes to convey from Buckingham Palace in an attempt to normalize his situation.
Next Monday's attendance at the commemorations of the 80th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day is further proof of this. Without a doubt, it represents his continuity and his firm willingness to continue with his institutional agenda despite health issues.
By his side will be Camilla, who will join her husband on such a significant day. Additionally, Buckingham Palace has also announced that they will hold a Thanksgiving service at Westminster Abbey.
