Queen Sofía visits US for American independence 250th anniversary
Queen Sofía of Spain is traveling to the United States to participate in commemorations for the 250th anniversary of American independence. Her itinerary includes a visit to New Orleans, where she will attend events through Sunday focused on Spain's historical role in the American Revolution along the Mississippi.
Despite these commemorative activities, a high-level bilateral meeting or state visit between the Spanish monarchs and the United States administration under Donald Trump has not yet occurred. A state visit for the Spanish royals had been planned for 2020 but was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. While there has been speculation regarding the timing of this visit during the anniversary year, no official signals have been issued by Washington.
