Fler kungliga kondoleanser
avVärlden sörjer en stor man och fler och fler kungligheter visar sitt deltagande genom att beklaga sorgen genom ett pressmeddelande.
Så här säger det brittiska hovet:
The Queen was deeply saddened to learn of the death of Nelson Mandela last night. He worked tirelessly for the good of his country, and his legacy is the peaceful South Africa we see today.
Her Majesty remembers with great warmth her meetings with Mr. Mandela and sends her sincere condolences to his family and the people of South Africa at this very sad time.

Och prins Charles:
”Mr Mandela was the embodiment of courage and reconciliation. He was also a man of great humour and had a real zest for life. With his passing, there will be an immense void not only in his family’s lives, but also in those of all South Africans and the many others whose lives have been changed through his fight for peace, justice and freedom.”
”The world has lost an inspired leader and a great man. My family and I are profoundly saddened and our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
Prins William gjorde det här uttalandet efter att de såg en film om Nelson Mandela igår kväll:
Kung Harald av Norge:
Det er med stor sorg vi har mottatt meldingen om president Nelson Mandelas bortgang. Våre tanker og kondolanser går til hans familie og det sør-afrikanske folk.
Jeg har vært så heldig at jeg har fått møte ham flere ganger. Nelson Mandela har vært et forbilde for meg. Jeg har beundret hans lederskap, mot og visdom. I en situasjon preget av vold og hevnlyst klarte han å hente ut det beste – både i seg selv og sine medborgere. Han har vist verden at det er mulig å velge forsoning fremfor hevn, velge det som bygger opp fremfor det som river ned.
