UK leader Burnham open to formal slavery apology, but rejects reparations

برطانوی رہنما برنہم غلامی پر باضابطہ معافی کے لیے تیار، مگر معاوضے سے انکار

ब्रिटिश नेता बर्नहम ग़ुलामी पर औपचारिक माफ़ी के लिए तैयार, लेकिन मुआवज़े से इनकार

UK leader Burnham open to formal slavery apology, but rejects reparations

Key points

اہم نکات

मुख्य बातें

  • British Prime Minister Andy Burnham has said he is open to a formal state apology for Britain's role in the transatlantic slave trade, ahead of next week's Commonwealth summit in Antigua and Barbuda.
  • Writing in The Guardian, he offered a structured dialogue with affected countries and groups, and expressed sorrow and regret for the suffering of millions of enslaved people.
  • He rejected financial reparations, saying people living in Britain today cannot be held liable for wrongs committed centuries ago under different laws.
  • برطانوی وزیراعظم اینڈی برنہم نے کہا ہے کہ وہ برطانیہ کے غلاموں کی تجارت میں کردار پر باضابطہ ریاستی معافی کے لیے تیار ہیں، یہ بات انہوں نے اگلے ہفتے اینٹیگوا اور باربوڈا میں دولت مشترکہ سربراہی اجلاس سے پہلے کہی۔ گارڈین میں لکھتے ہوئے انہوں نے متاثرہ ملکوں اور گروپوں سے منظم مکالمے کی پیشکش کی اور لاکھوں غلام بنائے گئے لوگوں کے دکھ پر افسوس کا اظہار کیا۔ انہوں نے مالی معاوضے سے انکار کرتے ہوئے کہا کہ آج برطانیہ میں رہنے والے لوگوں کو صدیوں پرانی غلطیوں کا ذمہ دار نہیں ٹھہرایا جا سکتا۔ اس کے بجائے انہوں نے غریب ملکوں کے قرضوں کا بوجھ کم کرنے کی تجویز دی، جس میں قرض واپسی کی مدت لمبی اور شرح سود بہتر ہو۔ کیریبین رہنماؤں نے مذاکرات کا خیرمقدم کیا لیکن کہا کہ ان کا معاوضے کا مطالبہ برقرار ہے۔
  • ब्रिटिश प्रधानमंत्री एंडी बर्नहम ने कहा है कि वे ब्रिटेन की ट्रांसअटलांटिक ग़ुलाम व्यापार में भूमिका के लिए औपचारिक राजकीय माफ़ी के लिए तैयार हैं, यह बात उन्होंने अगले हफ़्ते एंटीगुआ और बारबुडा में राष्ट्रमंडल शिखर सम्मेलन से पहले कही। द गार्जियन में लिखते हुए उन्होंने प्रभावित देशों और समूहों के साथ संरचित संवाद की पेशकश की, और लाखों ग़ुलाम बनाए गए लोगों के दुख पर शोक और खेद व्यक्त किया। उन्होंने वित्तीय मुआवज़े से इनकार करते हुए कहा कि आज ब्रिटेन में रहने वाले लोगों को सदियों पहले अलग क़ानूनों के तहत हुई गलतियों के लिए ज़िम्मेदार नहीं ठहराया जा सकता। इसके बजाय उन्होंने ग़रीब देशों के कर्ज़ का बोझ कम करने का प्रस्ताव दिया, जिसमें चुकौती की अवधि लंबी और ब्याज दरें बेहतर हों। कैरेबियाई नेताओं ने बातचीत का स्वागत किया लेकिन कहा कि उनकी मुआवज़े की मांग बरकरार है।

British Prime Minister Andy Burnham has said he is open to a formal state apology for Britain's role in the transatlantic slave trade, ahead of next week's Commonwealth summit in Antigua and Barbuda. Writing in The Guardian, he offered a structured dialogue with affected countries and groups, and expressed sorrow and regret for the suffering of millions of enslaved people. He rejected financial reparations, saying people living in Britain today cannot be held liable for wrongs committed centuries ago under different laws. Instead, he proposed a new drive to ease the debt burden on poorer countries, with longer repayment periods and better interest rates. Caribbean leaders welcomed the talks but said their demand for reparatory justice remains unchanged.
