UUP paper – Pathway to peace within the Union, 4 March 1997

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The document from the Ulster Unionist Party dated 4 March 1997, outlines their stance and proposals regarding the ongoing peace talks in Northern Ireland. The UUP criticizes the assumption that Sinn Féin/ PIRA [sic] is committed to peaceful means and expresses concern over their provocative actions aimed at reigniting Loyalist paramilitary violence. The party emphasizes the importance of decommissioning and suggests that talks can continue without Sinn Féin/ PIRA [sic], proposing a range of confidence-building measures and administrative reforms that do not require constitutional compromises. Additionally, the UUP advocates for structured cooperation with local politicians and the Republic of Ireland on mutual interests, while also addressing justice and rights issues through potential academic-led conferences.
