北爱大臣主持德拉姆克里游行间接会谈 僵局持续且居民发起新诉讼Northern Ireland Secretary Holds Proximity Talks as Drumcree Parade Dispute Continues

周三在希尔斯伯勒城堡举行的会谈已进入连续第三天。会谈设在一间通常用作起居室的楼上房间内，北爱尔兰事务大臣克里斯·布莱恩特爵士分别同双方代表接触。奥兰治教团代表与加瓦吉路居民联盟代表分别在不同房间等候，轮流上楼与布莱恩特沟通，双方自始至终未共处一室或直接会晤。

Discussions at Hillsborough Castle entered their third consecutive day on Wednesday, taking place in an upstairs room that under normal circumstances serves as a sitting room. Northern Ireland Secretary Sir Chris Bryant engaged with community figures through proximity talks, meeting each side separately as delegates from the Portadown Orange Order and the Garvaghy Road Residents' Coalition waited in different rooms downstairs, avoiding direct face-to-face contact.

奥兰治教团波塔当分会负责人奈杰尔·道森和副分会长阿拉斯泰尔·鲍尔于周三清晨抵达，担任该分会法律顾问的保皇派活动人士杰米·布赖森随行，但布赖森并未进入与布莱恩特的会谈室，而是在单独房间等候。随后抵达的加瓦吉路居民联盟代表布兰丹·麦克·乔纳斯在入场时对媒体发言保持克制，被问及对事务大臣的表态时仅称“我想你们心里清楚”。政府官员认为，尽管目前毫无进展且双方均未表现出妥协意愿，但两派仍在同一屋檐下参与磋商仍具积极意义。

Senior Orange Order representatives arrived early on Wednesday, including Portadown District Master Nigel Dawson and Deputy District Master Alastair Power, accompanied by loyalist activist Jamie Bryson. Bryson, who has acted as a legal adviser for the lodge, waited in a separate room and was understood not to have participated in the sessions with Sir Chris. Garvaghy Road Residents' Coalition leader Breandán Mac Cionnaith arrived shortly afterward, declining to elaborate to reporters on his earlier comments and saying only 'I think you know that' when asked what his message to the secretary would be. Government officials noted that while neither side has shown a willingness to compromise, their continued engagement in the process is viewed as a positive sign.

加瓦吉路居民联盟已就德拉姆克里游行决定发起新一轮法律诉讼，指控游行委员会在做出裁决时存在“实质性错误引导”。该团体的出庭大律师丹尼斯·凯利此前在高等法院听证会上指出，游行委员会用于评估公共秩序混乱或财产受损风险的表格文件完全“指向过去”，并未包含任何对未来潜在冲突风险的评估，且该评估模板的提供方来源不明。

The Garvaghy Road Residents' Coalition has launched a fresh legal challenge against the Parades Commission's decision, arguing that the parading regulatory body 'materially misdirected itself' when granting permission for the march. During arguments presented to the High Court, the residents' barrister, Denise Kiley KC, highlighted that commission documentation regarding potential public disorder or property damage was directed entirely toward past events rather than evaluating future risks, adding that it remained unclear who had provided the assessment template to the commission.

该居民团体负责人布兰丹·麦克·乔纳斯重申了不接受任何游行的强硬立场，强调其社区近4000名居民的明确诉求是彻底取消该路线游行。在周二与北爱尔兰事务大臣会面后，麦克·乔纳斯在当地牧民中心向居民通报时明确表示调解前景已经告吹。该诉讼是继上周六及周日凌晨经历长达13小时的三场紧急听证会后，居民团体针对允许游行裁决所展开的最新司法挑战，高等法院预计将在周五正式审理此案。

Breandán Mac Cionnaith, the leader of the residents' coalition, firmly reiterated his community's demand for the total cancellation of the march along their road, stating that nearly 4,000 local residents gave him a mandate for 'no parade'. Following his Tuesday session with Northern Ireland Secretary Chris Bryant, Mac Cionnaith addressed residents at a local pastoral centre to declare that mediation prospects were dead in the water. The appeal follows a grueling sequence of three separate legal hearings conducted over 13 hours late Saturday and early Sunday, with the High Court scheduled to hear the coalition's latest arguments on Friday.

波塔当奥兰治教团成员周二夜间一度离开游行起点德拉姆克里教堂，这是自周日上午引发游行争议以来的首次离开。周二晚间10点刚过，教团成员在民主统一党议员卡拉·洛克哈特的陪同下，再次尝试沿民族派聚居的加瓦吉路行进，随后于周三早晨返回德拉姆克里教堂。教团成员誓言将留守教堂现场，直至警方获准他们完整走完既定游行路线。该分会负责人奈杰尔·道森重申，希望法律得到执行以完成游行。

Members of the Portadown Orange Order left Drumcree church, the designated starting point for their parade, overnight on Tuesday for the first time since the dispute erupted on Sunday morning. Accompanied by Democratic Unionist Party MP Carla Lockhart, members made another attempt to walk their route along Garvaghy Road just after 10 p.m. on Tuesday night before returning to the church on Wednesday morning. Lodge members have vowed to remain at Drumcree until police allow them to complete the permitted march, with district master Nigel Dawson emphasizing that they look forward to the law being applied.

在波塔当加瓦吉路一端，数十名民族派抗议者自周三起持续在现场露营，部分居民表示他们已在户外露营近24小时以封锁道路。根据北爱尔兰游行法规，所有抗议活动必须向游行委员会通报并获得批准，但加瓦吉路路口的抗议聚集并未获得通报。现场可见警方路虎车辆在德拉姆克里教堂附近驻守，出于对驱散抗议可能引发暴力冲突的担忧，警方尚未采取行动驱离封锁道路的居民。

On the other side of the dispute, dozens of nationalist protesters continued their roadside demonstration along Garvaghy Road on Wednesday, with local residents reporting that they had camped out for nearly 24 hours to maintain the road blockade. Under Northern Ireland parading legislation, public protests must be notified to and approved by the Parades Commission, but the ongoing gathering at the head of the road remains unnotified. While police vehicles monitored the area near Drumcree church, officers have refrained from dispersing the nationalist crowd to avoid triggering wider disorder.

化解德拉姆克里游行争议的努力延伸至都柏林。新芬党领袖玛丽·卢·麦克唐纳与北爱尔兰首席部长米歇尔·奥尼尔同爱尔兰总理西蒙·哈里斯及副总理米歇尔·马丁举行了高级别会晤。新芬党领袖麦克唐纳指出，游行委员会的决定令人震惊，并警告该裁定有可能将当地社区乃至整个社会拖回极其黯淡动荡的往日岁月。爱尔兰副总理马丁则再次表态，批评游行委员会允许近30年来首次沿加瓦吉路游行的决定是错误且不可理解的。

Diplomatic and political efforts to address the Drumcree parade deadlock expanded to Dublin, where Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald and Northern Ireland First Minister Michelle O'Neill held discussions with Irish Taoiseach Simon Harris and Tánaiste Micheál Martin. McDonald remarked that people were left gobsmacked by the Parades Commission's ruling, warning that the move carried the potential to drag the local community and wider society back to bleak and troubled times. Tánaiste Micheál Martin echoed strong concerns, describing the decision to allow the Orange Order to march along Garvaghy Road for the first time in nearly three decades as incomprehensible and wrong.

北爱尔兰首席部长奥尼尔因在周日参与加瓦吉路的大规模人群封路抗议、阻挡游行队伍行进而受到来自联合派人士的批评。爱尔兰前总理、1998年贝尔法斯特和平协议主要缔造者之一伯蒂·埃亨也对当前的教派紧张局势公开发出警告，呼吁各方警惕倒退回过去部落主义对立的危险。

First Minister Michelle O'Neill faced sharp criticism from unionist politicians after she and senior Sinn Féin colleagues joined the large crowd blocking the predominantly nationalist Garvaghy Road on Sunday to halt the parade. Former Irish Taoiseach Bertie Ahern, one of the architects of the 1998 peace agreement that ended 30 years of violence, also intervened by issuing a warning against the dangers of returning to a tribal past.
