Joining FRANCE 24 is Dr. Nicolas Westcott, Director of the Royal African Society, Research Associate at the Centre of African Studies at SOAS University of London and former UK Ambassador to Ghana. According to Dr. Westcott, "The Queen has in its many ways embodied the Commonwealth itself. She was the person who shepherded the transition from Empire to Commonwealth. She's the quintessence of it. And her passing will have a profound impact on the way Britain is seen in the world."
