Diversity is Commonwealth's strength, Prince Charles due to say
The Prince of Wales is expected to tell Commonwealth leaders their diversity is a " strength" at the opening of a global summit in Rwanda.

He Will Tell leaders their differences are a positive they can use to " Speak Up for the values which bind us".
The Prince will also meet Boris Johnson later following reports he criticised the UK's Rwanda asylum seeker plan.
The Heir to The Throne is reported to have described The Plan as " appalling" but a Clarence House spokesperson said the " prince is politically neutral".

The Prime Minister , who travelled to Rwanda with his wife Carrie Johnson , has said " people need to keep an Open Mind about the policy".
Prince Charles will be making an opening address at The Summit on Friday, where Commonwealth leaders will discuss trade, health and the climate.
He is expected to say: " In the diversity of the 2. 6 billion people on whose behalf you speak, comes great strength, which you can use, for instance, to Speak Up for the values which bind us, to invest in a rapid transition to a sustainable future and to create opportunities for our Young People . "
