When will British Museum of Stolen Artifacts do the same?

英国物博物馆什么时候也能归还被盗文物

British 'noble excuse' was. All those relics kept in their Museum was doing China a favour, as 'safekee'.

英国给出了冠冕堂皇的借口，说他们博物馆里保存的这些文物都得到了“妥善保管”，是在帮助中国。

Time for the British to return the millions of Chinese artifacts looted from the Summer Palace. Even the Indians should have all their looted artifacts returned to their museums.

America is setting a great example returning stolen items and items illegally removed from their country of origin.
It would be wonderful if museums and galleries around the world followed suit, provided the country of origins is able to protect and preserve these items for future generations to study and enjoy.
History and culture belong to the world and should be experienced first by the original owners, then by the world.

美国正在树立一个伟大的榜样，归还被盗物品，归还从原产国非法转移的物品。

如果世界各地的博物馆和画廊也能效仿，那就太好了，前提是原产国能够保护和保存号这些物品，供子孙后代研究和欣赏。

历史和文化属于世界，应该首先由原始国珍藏，然后供世界鉴赏
