贝尔法斯特，9月27日电——北爱尔兰高等法院周日清晨裁定，一支新教游行可以穿过一个天主教地区，推翻了针对这场高度敏感游行的临时禁令。该地区历来是教派冲突的爆点。
BELFAST, Sept 27 - A Protestant parade may proceed through a Catholic area, Northern Ireland's High Court ruled early on Sunday, reversing a temporary ban on the highly charged march in an area that has historically been a flashpoint of sectarian disputes.
高等法院驳回了阻止奥兰治兄弟会经过波塔当地区的新申请；此前，上诉法院撤销了周六向反对游行的居民授予的临时禁令。
The High Court dismissed a new application to stop the Orange Order from going through the area of Portadown after the Court of Appeal vacated a temporary injunction granted on Saturday to residents who opposed the parade.
加尔瓦吉路居民对北爱尔兰游行委员会周五的一项裁决提出异议。该裁决允许奥兰治兄弟会沿当地道路游行，推翻了这条路线近30年来的禁令。加尔瓦吉路地区是这座以新教徒为主的城镇中的一处天主教聚居区。
Residents of the Garvaghy Road area had challenged Friday's ruling by Northern Ireland's Parades Commission that permitted the Orange Order to march along their road, a Catholic enclave in the largely Protestant town, overturning an almost 30-year ban on the route.
周日上午早些时候，大批民众聚集在加尔瓦吉路，抗议允许游行通过的裁决。社交媒体上发布的一段视频显示，聚集者中包括北爱尔兰首席部长米歇尔·奥尼尔和爱尔兰民族主义新芬党领导人玛丽·卢·麦克唐纳尔。奥尼尔同时担任新芬党副主席。
A crowd gathered on the Garvaghy Road early on Sunday morning to protest against the ruling allowing the march. In the crowd were Northern Ireland First Minister Michelle O'Neill, who is also vice president of the Irish nationalist Sinn Fein party, and her party's leader, Mary Lou McDonald, video posted on social media showed.
“尽管黑暗势力可能想阻止我们建立一个全新的统一爱尔兰，但他们注定会失败。”麦克唐纳尔在视频中对聚集的抗议者说。该视频发布在社交媒体上。民主联合党议员卡拉·洛克哈特在法院外告诉记者，新芬党和其他民族主义政客有责任遵守法治，允许游行队伍通过。
"Although the forces of darkness may want to stop us creating a new united Ireland, they will fail," McDonald told a crowd of protesters in the clip, posted on Carla Lockhart, a member of parliament from the Democratic Unionist Party, told reporters outside the court that it was up to Sinn Fein and other nationalist politicians to abide by the rule of law and allow the parade to pass through.
围绕这条路线的最初争端，后来成为北爱尔兰冲突的标志性爆点之一。
The original dispute over the route became one of the defining flashpoints of the conflict in Northern Ireland.
新教奥兰治兄弟会每年都试图游行穿过该地区，曾在英国管辖的整个地区引发动荡。1998年，这条路线被禁止通行；同年，《耶稣受难日协议》基本结束了被称为“北爱问题”的持续三十年的暴力冲突。
Annual attempts by the Protestant Orange Order to march through the area triggered unrest across the British-run region before the route was banned in 1998, the year the Good Friday Agreement largely ended the three decades of violence known as the "Troubles".
游行委员会周五作出的决定规定，参加游行的规模将低于平常，人数为35人；游行须于上午8时（格林尼治时间0700）开始，并于上午9时30分结束；不允许任何支持者或乐队参加。
The Parades Commission's determination on Friday stipulated that a smaller-than-usual 35 people could take part in the march, that it should begin by 8 a.m. (0700 GMT) and finish by 9:30 a.m. and that no supporters or bands would be allowed.
委员会最初维持了禁令，但高等法院于8月因程序错误推翻了该决定。
The commission had initially maintained its ban, but the High Court quashed that decision in August over a procedural error.
