Returning to our breaking news now from the United Kingdom, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, the younger brother of the British King, has been arrested by police on suspicion of misconduct whilst in public office.

接著我們來關注英國的最新發展，英國國王的弟弟安德魯王子，也就是安德魯·蒙巴頓·溫莎，因為涉嫌在公職期間有不當行為，遭到警方逮捕。

We understand several police officers arrived at his residence earlier this morning.

我們得知今天早上有幾位警員抵達了他的住所。

For more on this developing story, we're going to go now to Milena Versilanovic who joins us from London.

關於這則發展中的事件，我們將連線在倫敦的 Milena Versilanovic，為我們帶來更多消息。

And can I ask you what is the background to this story about the reports the police have arrested Andrew Mountbatten Windsor?

我可以請問一下，關於警方逮捕安德魯·蒙巴頓·溫莎的報導，這則新聞的背景是什麼呢？

Well, we know that the police were investigating the former Prince Andrew, now known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, on allegations of misconduct in public office.

嗯，我們知道警方正在調查前安德魯王子，也就是現在的安德魯·蒙巴頓·溫莎，他被指控在公職期間有不當行為。

Allegations that he had forwarded confidential information that he obtained as part of his job as Britain's trade envoy, was onto the late disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein.

指控內容是說，他將身為英國貿易使節時，從工作中取得的機密資訊，傳送給了已故聲名狼藉的金融家傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦。

And we also know that a number of police forces around the UK were investigating Andrew for a number of allegations as well.

我們也知道，英國各地有許多警力也在調查安德魯的其他指控。

Now, he was arrested around 8 o' clock this morning and it all goes back to his handling of these confidential memos.

好的，他大約在今天早上八點被逮捕，這一切都源於他對這些機密備忘錄的處理方式。

In the latest release of information from the US authorities, it is shown that Andrew, as part of his job as Britain's trade envoy, would receive reports, and

美國當局最新公佈的資訊顯示，安德魯王子在擔任英國貿易使節期間，會收到關於他履行公職期間行程的報導，

some of them confidential, about the visits and the trips that he would undertake in his official capacity that he would then forward onto Jeffrey Epstein.

其中有些是機密資訊，他會將這些資訊轉發給傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦。

And one of those emails clearly shows the word confidential within it, Andrew himself saying to Jeffrey Epstein that he wanted to hear his views about the investment opportunities in Helmand province in Afghanistan, that at the time the UK taxpayers were funding the reconstruction of.

其中一封電子郵件清楚顯示了「機密」一詞，安德魯王子親口告訴傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦，他想聽聽對方對阿富汗赫爾曼德省投資機會的看法，當時英國納稅人正資助該地的重建工作。

And within this email it says that it is a confidential memo.

這封電子郵件中提到，這是一份機密備忘錄。

Now all of that came out in that latest batch of emails released by the US Department of Justice.

這一切都來自美國司法部最新公佈的電子郵件。

And we've even heard from the UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer this morning when he was questioned about it, saying that no one is above the law.

甚至英國首相施凱爾（Keir Starmer）今早被問及此事時也表示，沒有人能凌駕於法律之上。

And we also know the UK's National Crime Agency is involved in this.

我們也知道英國國家犯罪局也介入了此事。

But this is such an unprecedented action and move former Prince who was at one time the late Queen's favorite child, who held a number of high profile roles within the British establishment, who gradually has had this descent this fall from grace because of his associations with the convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

但這是一個前所未有的行動，這位曾是已故女王最寵愛孩子的王子，曾擔任英國體制內多個備受矚目的職位，卻因為與被定罪的戀童癖者傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦的交往，逐漸聲名狼藉、失寵。

Now he has been stripped of his royal titles by his older brother King Charles last year and he's also been forced to move out of his former grace and favor home on the Windsor Estate, the Royal Lodge to Sandringham, which is one another of the King's properties.

去年，他被他的哥哥查爾斯國王剝奪了皇室頭銜，也被迫搬離了溫莎莊園的皇家小屋，遷往國王的另一處房產——桑德林厄姆。

Understand this morning, and this is yet another blow to really the branding of the monarchy.

瞭解今早的情況，這對王室的形象又是一次重擊。

Now, it's important to say that the King and the Queen had released a statement just last week saying that if asked, they will cooperate with the police on this investigation, referring to Andrew simply as Mr.

現在，很重要的一點是，國王和女王上週才發表聲明，表示如果被問到，他們會配合警方的調查，並僅以溫莎先生（Mr. Mountbatten Windsor）稱呼安德魯王子。

Really trying to put some distance there between him and the rest of the Royal family.

真的試圖與王室其他成員拉開距離。

But truly, this is an unprecedented move in modern British history.

但說真的，這在現代英國歷史上是前所未有的舉動。

And we are reaching out to Buckingham palace for more comment.

我們正在聯繫白金漢宮尋求更多評論。

Yeah, Melania, you've got to think at some point they may be forced to make some comment.

是的，梅蘭妮亞，你得想想，他們總有一天可能會被迫發表一些評論。

This is, of course, important for our viewers who've been following this story.

對於一直關注這則報導的觀眾來說，這當然很重要。

There have been a number of discoveries with the release of those documents relating to Jeffrey Epstein.

隨著與傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦有關的文件公佈，已經有許多發現。

And as an important distinction, there have been a number of allegations about sex trafficking of young women and abuse of young women, and

而且，一個重要的區別是，有許多關於年輕女性性交易和虐待的指控，

that former Prince Andrew, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor was involved with Jeffrey Epstein in a very personal friendship capacity.

而且前安德魯王子，安德魯·蒙巴頓·溫莎與傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦有非常私人的友誼關係。

But these allegations specifically relate to that trade envoy role and the business dealings and the communications that appear to have been passed on, sometimes within minutes, wasn't it from his staff member to Jeffrey Epstein over a number of years?

但這些指控具體與貿易使節的角色、商業往來以及多年來似乎被傳遞的溝通有關，有時甚至是從他的員工傳給傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦，對吧？

And certainly it raises questions when Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has made claims about when his relationship or friendship with Epstein was or was not present, about whether that was an accurate representation of his friendship with him.

而且，當安德魯·蒙巴頓·溫莎聲稱他與愛潑斯坦的關係或友誼何時存在或不存在時，這無疑會引發問題，關於這是否準確地代表了他與他的友誼。

Indeed, I mean, I think it's important to say that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor has in the past denied all allegations.

確實，我的意思是，我認為重要的是要說，安德魯·蒙巴頓·溫莎過去否認了所有指控。

But it is also clear from this release of this latest batch of documents that a lot of the things that he'd been saying about when he cut off contact with Jeffrey Epstein simply weren't true.

但從最新一批文件的發布中也可以清楚地看出，他過去關於何時與傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦斷絕聯繫的許多說法根本不屬實。

He said that he had last spoken to Jeffrey Epstein when he went to visit him in New York in 2010.

他說他最後一次與傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦交談是在 2010 年去紐約拜訪他時。

This was after Jeffrey Epstein's conviction on child sex offenses that he'd gone there to break off relations.

這是在傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦因兒童性犯罪被定罪之後，他去那裡是為了斷絕關係。

But with this latest batch of emails, it's clear that he stayed in very close and intimate contact with him for much, much longer.

但從這批最新的電子郵件來看，很明顯他與他保持了非常緊密和親密的聯繫，時間長得多。

In fact, there are damning emails that show that within days of Jeffrey Epstein being released from custody, Andrew emailed him saying congratulations, saying he wants, wanted to celebrate his new life with him, even asking, what is freedom like?

事實上，有令人震驚的電子郵件顯示，在傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦獲釋後幾天內，安德魯就給他發了電子郵件，祝賀他，說他想和他一起慶祝他的新生活，甚至問道，自由是什麼感覺？

Now, that goes absolutely against everything that Andrew had been saying in public in terms of the nature of his relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.

這完全與安德魯在公開場合說的關於他與傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦關係性質的一切都背道而馳。

And of course, there had been a number of allegations from the late Virginia Giuffre, who said that she had been trafficked to, to Prince Andrew, then known as Prince on three occasions, allegations that he had denied.

當然，已故的 Virginia Giuffre 提出了多項指控，她說她曾三次被販運給安德魯王子，當時他被稱為王子，這些指控他都否認了。

But he did settle a large civil suit with her to the tune of about £10 million, which is something like 13, $14 million without admitting liability.

但他確實與她達成了一項巨額民事訴訟和解，金額約為 1000 萬英鎊，相當於 1300 萬至 1400 萬美元，但他並未承認責任。

And there was also some questions there about who paid for that.

而且，對於這筆錢是誰支付的，也有一些疑問。

So this is certainly a criminal case for Andrew to answer.

所以這絕對是安德魯需要回答的刑事案件。

But there are also wider questions for the Royal Family because this association of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor with Jeffrey Epstein, it was happening while he was a prince.

但對於皇室來說，也有更廣泛的問題，因為 Andrew Mountbatten Windsor 與 Jeffrey Epstein 的這種聯繫，發生在他還是王子期間。

It was happening while he had an official role within the UK government as Britain's trade envoy.

這發生在他擔任英國政府的貿易使節的官方職位期間。

There were news articles about it for a number of years, for the last 15 years at least.

多年來，至少在過去 15 年裡，都有相關新聞報導。

And for from the majority of that time, Andrew was embraced as part of the Royal Family, undergoing official duties.

而且在大部分時間裡，安德魯都被視為皇室成員，並履行官方職責。

And it's only in the last year or so that really the Royal Family have made a concerted effort to distance themselves from him, saying that the victims are what matters.

而且直到最近一年左右，皇室才真正努力與他劃清界線，表示受害者才是最重要的。

Again, we have to always reiterate that Andrew does deny allegations, but

我們必須再次強調，安德魯王子確實否認這些指控，但是

he has been arrested and there is some evidence certainly that as you said, the confidential information that he would receive from the British government to do with his official business, he would forward on to Jeffrey Epstein literally within minutes of receiving it.

他已經被逮捕，而且確實有一些證據，正如你所說，他會將從英國政府收到的機密資訊，與他的公職業務相關的內容，在收到後幾分鐘內就轉發給傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦。

And that is at the moment what the police is looking at in terms of his arrest.

而這正是警方目前在考慮逮捕他的原因。

But there are other investigations to do with trafficking of women that are ongoing as well.

但還有其他與人口販賣有關的調查也在進行中。

In terms of the fallout and the response you referred to the Royal Family and what will happen from here, Malena, because when we look at you mentioned Andrew was once the favourite son.

至於你提到的皇室的餘波和反應，以及接下來會發生什麼，瑪蓮娜，因為我們看看，你提到安德魯曾是女王最寵愛的兒子。

I don't think there was any secret about that of the Queen and his position in the family was well protected even after these allegations started coming out.

我認為這不是什麼祕密，即使在這些指控開始出現後，他在皇室的地位也一直受到保護。

And as you mentioned, the Royal Family itself has only really started to communicate on this issue and these allegations within the last year under King Charles, the statement from October last year saying these censures are deemed necessary, that was the removal of titles and the moving to private accommodation, notwithstanding the fact that Andrew continues to deny the allegations against him.

而且正如你所說，皇室本身真的只在去年，也就是查爾斯國王時期，才開始就這個問題和這些指控進行溝通，去年十月的聲明說這些處分是必要的，那就是褫奪頭銜並搬到私人住所，儘管安德魯王子持續否認對他的指控。

But you've got to think that as these allegations continue to come out, this has been a very long standing issue now of multiple links to Epstein over a number of years, over a number of issues that the Royal Family is continuing to deal with the fallout, not just with Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, but

但你必須想到，隨著這些指控不斷出現，這已經是一個長期的問題了，與愛潑斯坦有多次聯繫，多年來，皇室持續處理餘波，不僅是安德魯王子，

And when it comes to her, there is also a number of very embarrassing things that have come out with this release of emails where it does certainly seem like Jeffrey Epstein had been paying off the debts of Andrew's ex wife, Sarah Ferguson.

說到她，這批電子郵件的曝光也揭露了不少非常令人難堪的事情，看來傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦確實曾幫安德魯王子前妻莎拉·佛格森償還債務。

And it does show that she brought her young daughters, who were teenagers at the time, to Miami to have lunch with Jeffrey Epstein days after he'd been released from custody, serving a sentence on child sex offenses.

而且這也顯示，在傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦因兒童性犯罪服刑獲釋後幾天，她曾帶著當時還是青少年的兩個女兒到邁阿密與他共進午餐。

And that was also a trip that Jeffrey Epstein paid for himself.

那趟行程也是傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦自己付費的。

Those are all incredibly embarrassing things to come out for the Royal family and they really are overshadowing everything that they do at the moment.

這些事情全都讓皇室感到非常難堪，而且確實讓他們最近的任何行動都黯然失色。

You know, King Charles is trying to keep the focus on the charitable work that he's doing, but

查爾斯國王正試圖讓大家關注他正在做的慈善工作，但

he has been heckled a number of times during public engagements in the last few weeks, and

在過去幾週的公開活動中，他曾多次遭到喝倒采，

People have been shouting, asking, how long have you known about Epstein?

人們大喊著問，你認識愛潑斯坦多久了？

Andrew testified now, he had not responded to that during those particular engagements.

安德魯王子現在作證了，在那些特定的場合他沒有回應。

To keep the focus on the good work that the Royal family is doing.

讓大家關注皇室正在做的慈善工作。

But he does feel like that screen has slightly shattered that kind of mysterious sort of air of mystery that always envelops the Royal family, because we, by the release of these emails, have been able to peer into the dealings of Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, and

但他覺得，這次的事件稍微打破了皇室一直以來神祕的氣氛，因為透過這些郵件的公開，我們得以窺探安德魯王子（Andrew Mountbatten Windsor）的 DEALINGS，

a lot of it just simply doesn't look good.

而且很多事情看起來就是不太好。

And there have also been allegations that the palace, the King have been quite slow to react to this.

也有指控說，王室和國王對此反應相當慢。

Now, there's been a statement by the King and Queen saying that they will cooperate with the police if they're asked, saying that they always put victims first.

現在，國王和王后發表聲明，表示如果警方要求，他們會配合，並說他們始終將受害者放在第一位。

There was also a statement from the Prince and Princess of Wales saying they're really concerned about what they said were continuing revelations about Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, again saying the victims are at the forefront of their minds.

威爾斯親王和王妃也發表了聲明，表示他們對安德魯王子（Andrew Mountbatten Windsor）持續的爆料感到非常擔憂，同樣表示受害者是他們心中的首要考量。

But a lot of people here in the UK were saying, well, that doesn't quite go far enough because these allegations have been around for years.

但英國這裡的許多人都說，嗯，這還不夠，因為這些指控已經存在好幾年了。

There was, you know, Virginia Giuffre, the late Virginia Giuffre was very vocal about advocating for herself and the other alleged victims.

你知道的，維吉尼亞·吉弗爾（Virginia Giuffre）——已故的維吉尼亞·吉弗爾——非常積極地為自己和其他疑似受害者發聲。

And during all that time, we really hadn't had much from the Royal family.

而在這段時間裡，我們真的沒從王室聽到太多消息。

It just feels like now, when the pressure is really at a maximum point, when there are some undeniable things that have come out of this release of documents about Andrew's association with Jeffrey Epstein, about the fact that he lied about not being in contact with him after that meeting he had with him in 2010, now people are asking questions about what did the wider royal family know about it, what did the late Queen know about it?

現在壓力來到最高點，關於安德魯王子（Andrew Mountbatten Windsor）與傑弗瑞·愛潑斯坦（Jeffrey Epstein）的關聯，以及他謊稱在2010年見面後就沒再聯繫，這些文件釋出後有許多無可否認的事實浮現，大家開始質疑王室成員，甚至已故女王對此瞭解多少？

And these are kind of questions that usually you wouldn't get about The Royal Family, they are held at such a position of deference normally here in the uk, King Charles getting heckled.

這些問題通常不會發生在王室身上，他們在英國一向備受尊敬，連國王查爾斯（King Charles）都會被喝倒采。

Really, this is something that would have been unthinkable just a few years ago.

真的，這在幾年前是無法想像的。

There are calls for them now to be a lot more transparent because they are an institution that does really avoid scrutiny in many ways.

現在有人呼籲他們要更透明，因為他們在很多方面都迴避檢視。

神祕感也是他們吸引人的部分。

But now, really, people are saying, look, there's been clearly some sort of wrongdoing at the heart of, of the Royal family and we want to know what they knew about Andrew and how much they shielded him in terms of public accountability.

但現在，大家都在說，王室核心顯然有不當行為，我們想知道他們對安德魯王子瞭解多少，以及在公眾問責方面，他們在多大程度上保護了他。

There will obviously be some questions about what happens here for Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.

顯然，關於安德魯王子（Andrew Mountbatten Windsor）在這裡的未來，會有許多疑問。

The police say he is in custody, although they haven't named him.

警方表示他已被拘留，但尚未公佈姓名。

And as you mentioned, Keir Starmer saying, nobody is above the law this morning, but

而正如你提到的，基爾·斯塔默（Keir Starmer）今天早上說，沒有人可以凌駕於法律之上，但

he wouldn't say whether the former Prince should volunteer himself to UK police.

他沒有說前王子是否應該主動向英國警方自首。

Is there a timeframe on how long someone can be held in custody or when?

對於一個人可以被拘留多久或何時可以被釋放，是否有時間限制？

We may explain an update from either the government or the Met.

我們可能會說明政府或倫敦都會警方的最新消息。

Yes, this is the local police at the moment who arrested him.

是的，目前逮捕他的是當地警方。

Usually there is a time frame that people can be held without being charged.

通常，在未被起訴的情況下，一個人可以被拘留的時間是有時限的。

So for this we will have to wait and see.

所以這部分我們只能靜觀其變。

And I think the government will probably let the police do their job and not make any statements, likely before the police have come out with a charge or not.

我認為政府可能會讓警方自行處理，在警方公佈是否起訴前，不太可能發表任何聲明。

We have to simply let the legal process play out.

我們只能讓法律程序順利進行。

But what's quite interesting is that we have heard, yes, the Prime Minister talk about this, but

但很有趣的是，我們聽到了，是的，首相談論了這件事，但是
