On Friday, UK's King Charles III said that the Commonwealth should admit its mistakes in the past, and "painful" history which is Britain's role in slavery.
اThe king presented his speech during the Commonwealth Heads of Government Meeting in Samoa that started on Monday.
The core of today's meeting was slavery and the threats of climate change.
The British Monarch said: "I understand from listening to people across the Commonwealth how the most painful aspects of our past continue to resonate."
He added: "It is vital, therefore, that we understand our history, to guide us towards making the right choices in future."
His action was a response to the demands for former major colonial countries to acknowledge colonial actions like slavery. Therefore, this action was accepted by the Caribbean Community and the African Union.
On the other hand, several powers rejected such an action as major powers should not be held responsible for historical wrongs.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer rejected calls for reparations but said he was open to discuss it with other leaders.
The Guardian newspaper reported that a source from Starmer's office, said that the prime minister "opened the door to non-financial reparations."
