This year’s Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM), scheduled to be held in Rwanda, has been postponed due to the pandemic.
More than 10,000 delegates - including the UK Prime Minister and Prince of Wales - were expected to attend the 26th summit in the capital Kigali in two months' time.
A new date has not been announced.
It was going to be the first summit held in a country with no colonial links to the UK. Rwanda, which was formerly a Belgian colony, joined the Commonwealth in 2009.
