Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The joint statement by the British and Irish Governments on 23 July 1997 reaffirms their commitment to initiating substantive political negotiations on 15 September 1997. Both governments express their determination to ensure these negotiations are inclusive and address the decommissioning issue. They emphasize that the Mitchell report's implementation is the most realistic solution and stand by their clarified joint proposals, which aim to address all parties' concerns. The statement also outlines plans for the Secretary of State and the Minister for Foreign Affairs to meet and prepare for the upcoming negotiations, inviting all parties to consult with them during this preparatory period.
