【环球时报驻英国特派记者 邢雪 环球时报记者 陈子帅 刘洋】13日，英国国王查尔斯三世从苏格兰抵达北爱尔兰，这也是他首次以国王身份走访北爱尔兰。    BIRMINGHAM, Ala. -- An attorney for the mother of Alabama teen Natalee Holloway, who disappeared in Aruba, said a possible plea deal with a suspect in an extortion case is contingent upon his disclosing details about her death.Joran van der Sloot, long considered the chief suspect in Holloway's 2005 disappearance, is scheduled to appear in federal court Wednesday morning in Birmingham, Alabama, for a plea and sentencing hearing for a case in which he is accused of trying to extort $250,000 from Holloway's mother in 2010 to reveal the location of her body. John Q. Kelly, an attorney who represented Holloway's mother during the alleged extortion, told The Associated Press Tuesday that a potential plea deal is contingent upon him revealing information about what happened to Holloway. Kelly first made the comments on NBC's “Today” show. Emails sent to van der Sloot’s attorney and a spokeswoman for federal prosecutors were not immediately returned.Holloway's family has long sought answers about her disappearance. But those answers have proven elusive. Van der Sloot has given a variety of conflicting descriptions over the years about what happened, which would likely put raised scrutiny on any new account. Her family is expected to be in court Wednesday.Holloway went missing during a high school graduation trip with classmates to Aruba. The Alabama teen was last seen leaving a bar with van der Sloot, a student at an international school. The mysterious disappearance sparked years of news coverage and true-crime podcasts, books and movies. Van der Sloot was identified as a main suspect and was detained for questioning but no charges were filed in the case.A judge declared Holloway dead but her body has never been found. Prosecutors in the Alabama case said van der Sloot contacted Kelly in 2010 and asked for $250,000 from Beth Holloway to reveal the location of her daughter's remains. He later agreed to accept $25,000 to disclose the location, and asked for the other $225,000 once the remains were recovered. Van der Sloot said that Holloway was buried in the gravel under the foundation of a house, but later admitted that was untrue, FBI Agent William K. Bryan wrote in a 2010 sworn statement filed in the case. Van der Sloot moved from Aruba to Peru before he could be arrested in the extortion case. Van der Sloot was extradited to Alabama earlier this year from Peru, where he’s serving a 28-year sentence after confessing to killing a Peruvian woman in 2010. Peru’s government allowed van der Sloot’s temporary extradition to the U.S. to face charges there. Under a 2001 treaty between the countries, a suspect can be temporarily extradited to face trial in the other country, but must “be returned” after judicial proceedings are concluded.。这位英国历史上担任王位继承人身份时间最长的王储，近日在全球瞩目中登基，成为英国新一任君主。

二 | 聚光灯下，此前争议颇多的查尔斯三世能否顶住压力，树立自己的国王形象，成为世界热议的话题。登基之后频频亮相 近期，查尔斯三世频频在公众面前亮相。他发表了自己的首次电视演讲，与英国首相特拉斯举行了会面，在白金汉宫外与民众握手交谈，在枢密院成员的见证下举行了登基仪式，并首次以君主的身份在议会发表了讲话。10日，在圣詹姆斯宫举行的仪式上，查尔斯三世表示将把自己“剩下的生命”奉献给新角色。查尔斯三世以“旋风般的速度”开启了“春潮行动”。“春潮行动”与“伦敦桥行动”相接，是指查尔斯的接任计划。按照计划，女王去世后，查尔斯即刻成为国王，议会宣誓效忠，苏格兰、威尔士和北爱尔兰政府也将在两天内宣布新君主。女王逝世第四天（12日），查尔斯三世动身前往苏格兰首府爱丁堡，次日访问北爱尔兰首府贝尔法斯特。16日，享有“威尔士亲王”称号64年的查尔斯三世将到访威尔士。新国王的访问之旅伴随着不少小插曲。

三 | 英国广播公司（BBC）13日报道称，查尔斯三世在北爱尔兰的一个签字仪式上对钢笔漏水表达愤怒，在现场直言“实在受不了这该死的事情……”而这是近几天来查尔斯三世第二次在签字仪式中表现出明显不悦。曾经争议不少 与母亲伊丽莎白二世和儿子威廉王子相比，查尔斯三世的争议更大。《纽约时报》援引民调公司益普索莫里的调查数据发现，去年仅有11%的受访者视其为最受欢迎的英国王室成员。而在上世纪90年代中期，查尔斯的公共形象最负面时，一些批评人士甚至认为，这位丑闻缠身的继承人已经丧失了成为国王的资格，王位应该跳过他，由其长子威廉继承。此前，他因婚内“出轨”、慈善机构捐款丑闻等问题饱受争议。

四 | 其中批评最多的，还是他激进的政治形象。美国有线电视新闻网（CNN）发表评论称，查尔斯在担任王储角色时不够传统，更加直率，愿意表达观点。传统上，作为英国君主需要保持中立，不能过多表达对政治的态度。但在2004至2005年，查尔斯曾针对从农业慈善机构到国防开支等一系列问题给政府部门建议，被指违反制度，今年6月，他又被爆出批评政府将非法移民送往卢旺达的政策，再次受到舆论的批评。顶着巨大压力，查尔斯三世在争议中继位。准备最充分的国王 现年73岁的查尔斯三世是英国史上登基时最年长的君主，也是在位时间最长的王储，有人戏称“他的一生都在为登基做准备”。虽然饱受争议，但近年来他也收获了一些认可。据英国媒体报道，自今年上半年以来，英国女王由于健康原因，已经将一部分繁重的公务活动交给当时的查尔斯王储代为处理。5月10日，查尔斯首次在议会开幕仪式上代替英国女王发表演讲，列出了政府的立法议程，并概述了首相约翰逊将履行选举时的承诺，即解决英国区域不平等问题，以及最大限度实现英国脱欧后的自由。

五 | 在代替女王履职的几个月里，查尔斯已经开始塑造国王形象的历程。《纽约时报》称，为了减少英国王室对公共财政的消耗，查尔斯三世长期致力于推动精简王室规模。在他登基后，该计划有望付诸行动。查尔斯在继任之前的事业也受到媒体广泛赞誉，譬如他创立王子信托基金等强大的慈善机构，帮助了近百万的弱势年轻群体，并在城市可持续规划和环境保护等领域成为潮流之前就已经倡导并推动了它们。就连他干预政治的“前科”，媒体现在都宽容了许多。《纽约时报》称，查尔斯三世会毫不犹豫地参与棘手的政治问题。他经常呼吁宗教宽容，反对仇视穆斯林情绪。

六 | 一些学者也公开支持查尔斯三世，伦敦国王学院的政府学教授弗农·博格丹诺认为，查尔斯三世与女王的作风非常不同，他将是一个积极进取的国王，尽管他可能会将自己的王室特权利用至极限，但不会越权。
