查尔斯三世国王和卡米拉女王将于周四在威尔士进行一次访问,正式开启威尔士议会第七届会期。
Charles III and Queen Camilla will officially open the Senedd's seventh term on Thursday during a visit to Wales.
这是自2024年以来,君主首次访问威尔士议会,也是他与鲁·阿普·伊奥尔沃思(Rhun ap Iorwerth)首次正式会面,后者自成为威尔士第一部长以来。
It will be the first time the monarch will have visited the Welsh Parliament since 2024, and the first official meeting with Rhun ap Iorwerth since he became Wales' first minister.

此次访问发生之际,有消息指出威尔士国家诗人将不会参加原计划中的仪式,原因是议会官员拒绝了她为该活动撰写的诗歌。
The visit comes as it emerged Wales' national poet would not be taking part in ceremony as planned, after Senedd officials rejected the poem she had written for the event.
查尔斯国王将在议会发表演讲,随后会见一批受邀嘉宾,其中包括10岁的诺亚·琼斯(Noah Jones),他的曾外祖父是1966年阿伯芬(Aberfan)煤矿坍塌事故的幸存者。
King Charles will give a speech to the Senedd before meeting a number of invited guests, including 10-year-old Noah Jones, whose great-grandfather survived the 1966 Aberfan coal tip disaster.
伊丽莎白二世在她去世前四年,即2021年,曾开启最后一次议会会期,当时她与现任国王和王后一同出席。
Elizabeth II had opened every previous session of the Senedd before her death four years ago, her last one being 2021 when she had been joined by the current King and Queen.
媒体简报称,在仪式上将由威尔士国家诗人汉南·伊萨(Hanan Issa)朗诵诗歌。
Briefings to the media about the event said a poetry reading would be made by the National Poet of Wales, Hanan Issa, at the ceremony.

周三,伊萨在Instagram上表示,她提交的诗作《成长》(To Grow)因仪式被认为“政治中立”而被拒。
On Wednesday, Issa posted to Instagram saying the poem she submitted, To Grow, was rejected on the grounds that the ceremony was "apolitical".
除其他问题外,这首诗提及了加沙和跨性别医疗。她说,第二版使用了“更抽象的语言”也被拒。
Among other issues, the poem referred to Gaza and trans healthcare. She said a second version that used "more abstract language" was also rejected.
伊萨表示,她被要求“庆祝”议会成员(MSs)的当选成就,同时提醒他们对威尔士人民的承诺。
Issa said she had been given a brief to "celebrate" Members of the Senedd (MSs) and their "achievements in being elected, while serving as a reminder of their commitment to the people of Wales".
她告诉BBC威尔士:“我感到失望,这比其他任何事情都更让人失望。这里是进行政治讨论的场所,而这实际上表明,以诗歌形式呈现的政治讨论是不受欢迎的。”
She told BBC Wales: "I'm disappointed more than anything. This is the chamber where political discussion is had, and this very much says that political discussion framed as a poem is not welcome."

威尔士议会委员会表示:“经过一番发展过程,我们得出结论,这首诗不适合此次场合。”
The Senedd commission said: "After a development process, we concluded that the poem was not the right fit for this occasion."
委员会补充道:“我们尊重威尔士国家诗人在艺术上的独立性,并继续欣赏和重视他们的工作。” 首席部长将在周四与威尔士议会议长胡夫·伊兰卡-戴维斯以及代表英国政府的工党威尔士事务大臣斯蒂芬·金诺克一起,在威尔士议会台阶上迎接国王。
It added: "We respect the National Poet of Wales' artistic independence and continue to admire and value their work." The first minister will be among those greeting the King on the Senedd steps on Thursday, together with the presiding officer Huw Irranca-Davies and the Labour Welsh Secretary Stephen Kinnock, who will represent the UK government.

与亲独立党——植根于强烈共和传统的威尔士党(Plaid Cymru)领袖的会面,将在其5月首次选举胜利之后,成为一个重要且富有象征意义的时刻。
The meeting with the leader of Plaid Cymru - a pro-independence party rooted in a strong republican tradition - will mark a significant and symbolic moment after its first election victory in May.
阿普·伊奥沃思领导的威尔士党在5月的威尔士议会选举后掌控了威尔士政府,取代了自1999年下放权力以来一直领导历届政府的工党。
Ap Iorwerth's Plaid Cymru took control of the Welsh government following May's Senedd election, replacing Labour who had led every previous government since devolution in 1999.
威尔士党领袖去年在接受《政治之家》采访时表示,他不相信“国王和王子”,但称此事对他来说不是“政治优先事项”。
The Plaid leader told an interview with Politics Home last year that he did not believe in "kings and princes", but said the issue was not a "political priority for him".
他说,他理解君主制在威尔士仍然“对许多人很重要”,但认为“应有明确论点主张,威尔士亲王头衔应被送进历史博物馆”。
He said he appreciated the monarchy remained "important" to many in Wales, but said there was a "clear argument to be made that the Prince of Wales title should be consigned to the history books".


在他年轻时,首席部长曾是名为“69”的乐队成员——这是对查尔斯在卡纳封城堡受封为威尔士亲王这一有争议事件的暗示。
When he was younger the first minister was a member of a band called 69 - a reference to the controversial investiture of Charles as Prince of Wales in Caernarfon Castle.
阿普·伊奥沃思预计将全程参与周四的仪式,并在国王向威尔士议会发表讲话后发表自己的演讲。所有威尔士议会威尔士党议员(MS)预计都将出席。
Ap Iorwerth is taking a full part in Thursday's ceremony, and is expected to give his own speech after the King addresses the Senedd. All Plaid Cymru Members of the Senedd (MSs) are expected to attend.
但情况并非一直如此。2011年,有四名威尔士党议员缺席,其中包括后来成为党领袖的莱恩·伍德,她是在次年才担任党领袖的。
That has not always been the case. In 2011, four Plaid Cymru MSs stayed away, including Leanne Wood, before she became party leader the next year.
国王还将受到改革党、工党、保守党、绿党以及自由民主党等反对党领袖在威尔士议会(Senedd)的迎接。
The King will also be greeted by the Senedd's opposition leaders from Reform, Labour, the Conservatives, the Greens and the Liberal Democrats.

国王和王后将在威尔士议会受到来自托尼潘迪的Llwynypia小学和卡迪夫的Albany小学的学生的欢迎。
The King and Queen will be welcomed to the Senedd by pupils from Llwynypia Primary School, Tonypandy, and Albany Primary School, Cardiff.
开幕仪式通常在选举结束后举行,正式标志着一个新的威尔士议会会期的开始。
Held after an election takes place, the opening ceremony formally marks a new Senedd term.
国家元首出席该仪式,以彰显威尔士议会在威尔士公共生活中的作用。
The head of state attends in recognition of the Senedd's role in Welsh public life.
已故的女王于1999年主持了首届威尔士国民议会——即威尔士议会的前身——的开幕仪式,并出席了此后直至2022年的每一次选举后的会议。议槌是用于正式议会活动的礼仪用杖。
The late queen opened the first National Assembly for Wales - the previous incarnation of the Senedd - in 1999, and every post-election session until 2022. The mace is a ceremonial staff used at formal parliamentary events.
它由澳大利亚新南威尔士州议会于2006年议会大楼启用之际赠送,由黄金、白银和黄铜手工打造。
It was gifted by the Australian New South Wales parliament for the building's opening in 2006, handcrafted from gold, silver and brass.
威尔士议会大楼今年迎来20周年,于2006年正式启用。在5月份的选举中,其议员人数从60人增加到了96人。
The Senedd building is 20 years old this year, having opened its doors in 2006. It expanded from 60 to 96 members at the May election.
