BACKGROUND:?

最近英國皇家檔案公布英國女王一組行納粹禮的照片，從而引發(fā)全球熱議。

CONTENT：

The Sun's decision to publish footage of the Queen at six or seven years old performing a Nazi salute, held in the royal archives and hitherto unavailable for public viewing, has triggered concerns that the palace has for years sought to suppress the release of damaging material confirming the links between leading royals and the Third Reich.

?

Unlike the National Archives, the royal archives, which are known to contain large volumes of correspondence between members of the royal family and Nazi politicians and aristocrats, are not compelled to release material on a regular basis. Now, as that relationship becomes the subject of global debate, historians and MPs have called for the archives to be opened up so that the correspondence can be put into context.

主要找到謂語，把句子中的謂語同非謂語全部找出來，再一一進行判斷。

這里需要結合上下文理解，上文中說道女王年幼時行納粹禮，此舉肯定不妥當，所以全球引發(fā)擔憂，人們要求公布皇家檔案，希望結合具體的通信內容分析女王為何行納粹禮。
