PRINCE CHARLES MAY 'LOSE POPULARITY' OVER CAMPAIGNING SAYS EXPERT The Prince of Wales, 72, and Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, 74, will visit Jordan and Egypt next month,
Clarence House announced on Monday. On their agenda will be stressing the damaging impacts of climate change and the value of girls’ education. Charles will speak to religious leaders and
recognise how, amid various regional conflicts, Jordan has continued to accept refugees, including from Palestine and Syria. RELATED ARTICLES Strategically important foreign visits by
members of the Royal Family are usually requested by the UK Government. Charles and Camilla’s tour will take place after the two-week COP26 climate change summit in Glasgow, which kicks off
on Sunday. The Royal Family’s soft power can help bring countries closer together in mutually beneficial allyship. Earlier this year, the royal couple made a royal visit to Greece, where
Charles delivered a post-Brexit message of unity. The trip to the Hellenic nation in March came against a backdrop of Remainers claiming that Britain may fade into irrelevance after its
withdrawal from the EU. JUST IN: ROYAL FAMILY LIVE: WILLIAM SET FOR FURIOUS NETFLIX ROW AS SUSSEXES CASH IN ON £112M DEAL Brexit boost after Prince Charles' Greece speech: 'Futures

transition period concluded at the end of last year. Charles helped dispel some of the negativity by delivering a rousing speech – archived on the Prince of Wales’ official website – that
drew on the UK’s rich shared history with Greece and emphasising the continued friendship between the nations. The heir apparent reportedly spoke at a dinner held at the Presidential Mansion
in the Greek capital Athens. He said: “Today, as in 1821, Greece can count on her friends in the United Kingdom. “The ties between us are strong and vital and make a profound difference to
our shared prosperity and security. Speech: Charles spoke in Presidential Mansion (Image: GETTY) “Just as our histories are closely bound together, so too are our futures.” Taking
inspiration from a famous Greek poet, Charles added: “In this spirit, tomorrow, stood beside you once again, your British friends will take great pride in Dionýsios Solomós’s rousing
exhortation: [Hail, O Hail Liberty. Long live Greece].” As well as drawing on Greek literature, Charles also highlighted his and the Royal Family’s own personal links to Greece. He spoke
about his father, Prince Philip, the Queen’s husband who passed away aged 99 in April of this year, just a couple of weeks after Charles’ speech. The Duke of Edinburgh, Britain’s
longest-serving royal consort, was born on a dining room table on the Greek island of Corfu in 1921. DON'T MISS: Prince Andrew court dates confirmed: Queen's son to face legal

Prince Andrew of Greece and Denmark. Charles said: “My wife and I could not be more delighted to be back in Greece, which has long held the most special place in my heart. “After all, Greece
is the land of my grandfather; and of my father’s birth, nearly one hundred years ago, in the centenary year of Greek independence. “Later, it was in Athens that my dear grandmother,
Princess Alice, during the dark years of Nazi occupation, sheltered a Jewish family – an act for which in Israel she is counted as ‘Righteous Among The Nations’.” Timeline: Of Charles and

feeling a profound connection to Greece – her landscapes, her history and her culture – I am hardly alone: there is something of her essence in us all. “As the wellspring of Western
civilisation, Greece’s spirit runs through our societies and our democracies. “Without her, our laws, our art, our way of life, would never have flourished as they have.”
