Britain's King Charles deflected calls to atone for his country's colonial past Friday, as a summit of Commonwealth allies turned into a factious debate about the legacy of slavery and empire.
Many African, Caribbean and Pacific nations want to see Britain -- and other European powers -- pay financial compensation for slavery, or to at least make political amends. "The horrors of slavery left a deep, generational wound in our communities, and the fight for justice and reparatory justice is far from over".
"I understand, from listening to people across the Commonwealth, how the most painful aspects of our past continue to resonate," he said. "The question then is 'where do we go from there?' My posture, if you like, is that we should look forward, that we should look at what are today's challenges".One diplomatic source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told AFP that developed countries were trying to water down the language in the final text.
