“She generally always stood aloof from general political discussion and was of course an outstanding figure for all the people and for the Commonwealth and for large parts of the world and certainly a role model,” Bouffier told the private radio station Hit Radio FFH. .
He himself spoke to the Queen about politics and family during a meeting in 2015. She has always been very open and not at all “condescending”. The Queen also visited Frankfurt during a trip to Germany in 2015.
Queen Elizabeth II died Thursday at the age of 96 at her Scottish estate of Balmoral. She was in her 60s, longer than any other British monarch before her on the throne.
