    COUNTRIES NOT INVITED

    – Britain has invited heads of state or a representative at an ambassadorial level from any country with which it has full diplomatic relations.

    Countries that have not been invited include Syria and Venezuela because London does not have normal diplomatic relations with those states. Britain has also not invited representatives from Russia, Belarus or Myanmar after it imposed economic sanctions on those countries.
