Charles pledges redress
King Charles III pledged to work to address the wrongs of the past, saying that his growing awareness of the crimes of slavery had strengthened his resolve to learn from history and build a better future. Opening the Commonwealth meeting in Antigua and Barbuda, he described the transatlantic slave trade as a shameful chapter and expressed sorrow over its lasting effects. His remarks came amid calls for a British apology or reparations; no official apology has been issued and no reparations have been offered. Charles also called for cooperation among Commonwealth countries on climate, education and health issues.
