Foreign leaders visits are very codified and have specific protocols depending on what type of visit is.

Generally working visits involve less decorum and honors.

In UK, it's up to the Queen to agree or not a state visit as it implies great decorum and honors.

Blue and yellow are the EU flag colors. Notice how her outfit is all most all blue with very few yellows. Exactly like the flag : blue with 12 yellow stars.

She has a duty of reserve, but she knows how to show what she thinks !

In her position, she couldn't tell better how much she despise the pig !
