Before the guards took her away, Thorpe emphasized:

 “Give us back what you stole from us - our bones, our skulls, our children, our people. You have destroyed our land. Give us a treaty. We want a treaty,” the Australian senator told King Charzu.

The sovereign of the United Kingdom of Great Britain is also the head of state of Australia and is visiting the Commonwealth country for the 17th time, but for the first time as king. Before Charles, only his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, was there.

Charles and Queen Camilla arrived in Australia on Friday, but the official program began only on Sunday with a church service in Sydney. Small protests against the monarchy have already taken place in the neighborhood.
