【环球网报道 记者 索炎琦】在英女王去世后,一些国家围绕“脱离君主制”“改为共和制”的讨论还在继续。据英国路透社、《每日电讯报》最新消息,新西兰总理阿德恩当地时间周一(12日)被问及相关话题时表示,君主制被抛弃是不可避免的,尽管短期内不会发生,但她相信新西兰将在其“有生之年”成为共和国。
报道称,12日被记者问到“英国君主的改变是否会引发新西兰关于改制共和制的讨论”,阿德恩回答称:“我从来没有感觉到这一问题的紧迫性。
CANBERRA, Australia -- A Chinese Australian journalist who was convicted on murky espionage charges and detained in China for three years has returned to Australia, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said Wednesday.Cheng Lei, 48, worked for the international department of China's state broadcaster CCTV. She has reunited with her two children in Melbourne, Albanese said.Her return comes ahead of Albanese’s planned visit to Beijing this year on a date yet to be announced. He will become the first Australian prime minister to visit the Chinese capital in seven years.Albanese said Australia had traded nothing with China for Cheng's release.“Her release follows the completion of judicial processes in China,” he said.China’s Ministry of State Security said that Cheng had been approached by a foreign organization in May 2020 and provided them with state secrets she had obtained on the job in violation of a confidentiality clause signed with her employer. A police statement did not name the organization or say what the secrets were.A court in Beijing convicted her of illegally providing state secrets abroad and she was sentenced to two years and 11 months, the statement said. She was deported Wednesday after serving her sentence, presumably because she had already been detained for that long .“Her return brings an end to a very difficult few years for Ms. Cheng and her family," Albanese said. "The government has been seeking this for a long period of time and her return will be warmly welcomed not just by her family and friends but by all Australians.”The FreeChengLei account on X, formerly known as Twitter, posted a photo of Cheng with Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong and Australia's ambassador to China, Graham Fletcher.The post included a quote, apparently from Cheng, that read: “Tight hugs, teary screams, holding my kids in the spring sunshine. Trees shimmy from the breeze. I can see the entirety of the sky now! Thank you Aussies.”Albanese’s government has been lobbying for the release of Cheng and another Chinese Australian held in China since 2019, Yang Hengjun.Bilateral relations have improved since Albanese's center-left Labor Party was elected after nine years of conservative rule. Beijing has lifted several official and unofficial trade barriers on Australian exports.Albanese's reference to China's judicial system suggested that Cheng had recently been sentenced after she was convicted in a closed-court trial last year on national security charges.Questioned by a reporter, Albanese said China was not acknowledging through Cheng's release that she posed no threat or had been wrongfully detained.“No, China would have not have said that that's the position. China would say that the judicial processes have been completed in China,” Albanese said.Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Wang Wenbin said that the Chinese judicial system tried the case “in accordance with the law, fully safeguarding the rights enjoyed by the person concerned in accordance with the law.”Albanese said he spoke to Cheng in Melbourne, where her children have been living with her mother, and that they discussed a letter she had written to the Australian public in August to mark the third anniversary of her detention. The Chinese-born journalist spoke in her letter about her love for her adopted country.In the letter, she also described her living conditions in detention in China, saying she was allowed to stand in sunlight for just 10 hours a year.“She is a very strong and resilient person ... and when I spoke with her she was delighted to be back in Melbourne,” Albanese said.Albanese did not say whether Yang was also likely to be released.“We continue to advocate for Dr. Yang’s interests, rights and wellbeing with the Chinese authorities at all levels,” Albanese said.Yang, a 58-year-old writer and democracy blogger, told his family in August he fears he will die in a Beijing detention center after being diagnosed with a kidney cyst, prompting supporters to demand his release for medical treatment.Yang has been detained in China since January 2019, when he arrived in Guangzhou from New York with his wife and teenage stepdaughter.Yang received a closed-door trial on an espionage charge in Beijing in May 2021 and is still awaiting a verdict.Yang's friend, University of Technology Sydney academic Feng Chongyi, said on Wednesday a verdict had been postponed for three months 11 times and the next possible ruling was January.He said Cheng’s release was good news for Yang. “I do hope Yang is treated in the same way. Given Yang’s poor health, his release is actually more urgent,” Feng said.___Associated Press writer Ken Moritsugu in Beijing contributed to this report.___This story corrects the name of the Chinese security agency.。我们面临的挑战太多了。这是一场重大的辩论。不要认为它会或者应该很快发生。”“(但)我确实相信这(共和制)是新西兰未来的发展方向。我相信这会在我有生之年发生,但我不认为这是一项短期(可实现的)措施,也不是在短期内提上日程的事情,”阿德恩说。
路透社介绍,同澳大利亚、加拿大一样,新西兰是15个英联邦国家之一,英国君主是其国家元首。

二 | 而在新西兰是否应该成为共和国、选举本国公民作为国家元首的问题上,该国争论过一段时间。

三 | 当地时间9月8日,白金汉宫证实,英国女王伊丽莎白二世当天在苏格兰巴尔莫勒尔堡去世,终年96岁,其长子查尔斯三世继承王位。英国登基委员会10日正式宣告查尔斯三世为英国君主。英女王去世后,关于“脱离君主制”“改为共和制”的讨论在一些英联邦国家逐渐兴起。据英国天空新闻网等媒体消息,澳大利亚总理阿尔巴内塞11日曾谈及该话题,他表示澳大利亚不会在他的第一任期内进行“共和制公投”。不过,天空新闻网提到,阿尔巴内塞此前曾表态,称澳大利亚需要一个自己的国家元首。值得注意的是,“脱离君主制”近期并非没有先例。

四 | 就在去年11月,东加勒比海岛国巴巴多斯正式脱离英联邦成为共和国,此前担任巴总督的桑德拉•梅森宣誓就任该国首任总统,取代英国女王伊丽莎白二世成为该国国家元首。
