英国国王查尔斯三世已开始对加勒比地区的访问，他在面对要求奴隶制赔偿的呼声时，承认了“过去的巨大苦难”。
King Charles III has begun his tour of the Caribbean by acknowledging the "great suffering of the past" as he faced calls for slavery reparations.
在巴哈马举办的一场庆祝当地青年的活动上发言时，国王表示该国的文化“诞生于黑暗之中”，承认历史不公“理所应当”。
Speaking an event in the Bahamas celebrating local youth, the King said the country's culture was "born out of darkness", and it was "only right" to acknowledge historic injustices.
他为期九天的访问将以英联邦政府首脑会议（CHOGM）告终，国王已确认领导人将在会上讨论该地区的奴隶制遗留问题。
His nine-day tour will culminate in the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting (CHOGM), where the King has confirmed leaders will discuss the region's legacy of slavery.
此次访问是他登基以来的首次，正值加勒比国家重新呼吁英国为其贩卖奴隶牟利的角色道歉之际。
The visit, his first as monarch, comes in the wake of renewed calls from Caribbean nations for Britain to apologise for its role in selling enslaved people for profit.
行前，白金汉宫表示，国王在访问期间不会回避“殖民遗产”和奴隶贸易的影响，但根据英国政府的立场，他不会为英国在奴隶贸易中的角色道歉，也不会提供赔偿。
Prior to the trip, Buckingham Palace said the King would not shy away from "colonial legacy" and the impact of the slave trade during his visit but, in line with the UK government position, he will not apologise for Britain's role in the slave trade or offer reparations.
周二抵达后，国王会见了总督辛西娅·A·普拉特女爵士和总理菲利普·爱德华·戴维斯，随后在检阅仪仗队时与皇家巴哈马国防军成员交谈。

King Charles, wearing sunglasses and a grey suit, was then met with cheers as he arrived for his first engagement at a youth rally at Clifford Park - where he attended independence celebrations for the Bahamas as Prince of Wales in 1973.
现场的年轻人获准请假参加活动。“这是我第一次在TikTok之外亲眼见到他，他在外面呢，真酷，”一名学生告诉BBC。
The young people in the crowd had been given time off school for the event. "It's my first time seeing him in person out of TikTok so he's out there, it's cool," one student told the BBC.
一小群抗议者聚集在集会附近，高呼“付给我们欠我们的钱”和“归还你们偷走的文物”。这十几名抗议者被挡在主会场外，他们呼吁国王帮助改变英国政府在道歉和提供赔偿问题上的立场。
A small group of protestors gathered close to the rally shouting "pay us what you owe us" and "return artefacts you've stolen." The group of around a dozen protestors was kept outside the main venue as they called on the King to help change the UK government's position on apologising and offering reparations.
“他是一位有影响力的人。王室依然拥有影响力。如果他们不这么做，我们将成为共和国，如果你们不向前殖民地表示尊重，我们将背弃英格兰，”一名抗议者莎伦·珀瑟-库珀说。
"He's a man of influence. The Crown still has influence. And if they do not do it then we will become a republic and we will turn our backs on England if you do not show respect to the former colonies," said one protestor, Sharon Purcer-Cooper.
在拿骚的演讲中，国王提及了自己为应对气候变化奋斗长达50年的承诺，并强调了低洼加勒比岛国面临的挑战，称“我们的世界在呼唤治愈”。
During his speech in Nassau, the King acknowledged his 50-year-long commitment to fighting climate change and highlighted the challenges faced by low-lying Caribbean islands, saying that "our world cries out for healing".
他接着号召集会上的年轻人“承担起神圣的任务，发挥你们的作用”，因为“在未来的岁月里，这必将成为衡量每一个人的标准——他们如何回应关爱地球的呼唤——我们生命、繁荣与安全的源泉”。
He went on to call on young people at the rally to "take up the sacred task to play your part" as "in years to come, this will be surely be the measure of every person - how they answered the call to care for planet earth - the source of our life, our prosperity and our security".
国王将于周三在巴哈马恢复公务活动，届时他将听取介绍，了解加勒比低洼岛屿对气候变化的脆弱性。
The King resumes engagements in the Bahamas on Wednesday, where he will hear how vulnerable the low lying islands of the Caribbean are to climate change.
他还将进一步了解巴哈马的“容克努”传统——一种文化节庆和街头游行。
He will also learn more about the Bahamian tradition of Junkanoo - a cultural festival and street parade.
白金汉宫表示，国王为期九天、访问三个加勒比国家的行程中，将安排参观纪念馆和其他反思与纪念场所，让国王有机会反思奴隶贸易的遗留影响。
Buckingham Palace said opportunities for the King to reflect on the legacy of the slave trade will be built into the schedule of his nine-day tour of three Caribbean countries with visits planned to memorials and other places of reflection and remembrance.

For the King, the spokesperson added, the "tour is both a new journey but also the continuance of a lifelong one, in which he has sought to engage, understand and educate about the most shameful aspects of our past". Those themes will be reflected by the King through the nine-day visit, the palace said.
此次访问是与巴哈马、圭亚那和安提瓜和巴布达政府共同规划的，重点在于缅怀过去，同时展望未来几代人的雄心与可能性。
