French President Emmanuel Macron requested that a planned state visit by King Charles III be postponed, the UK government said Friday, as France sees ongoing protests over controversial pension reforms.

“This decision was taken with the consent of all parties, after the President of France asked the British Government to postpone the visit,” a UK government spokesperson said in a statement.
