In a transcript of a press conference with the British and Irish Government, David Andrews addressed the grave situation in Northern Ireland, highlighting recent sectarian murders that have caused significant outrage in both the nationalist and unionist communities. The representatives announced that the Ulster Democratic Party (UDP) could no longer participate in the negotiations due to breaches of the Mitchell principles of non-violence, but left open the possibility of their return if a complete and unqualified cease-fire was established. They emphasized the importance of deeds and words on the ground in maintaining the peace process and expressed optimism about resuming work towards a comprehensive political settlement. The decision to exclude the UDP was supported by widespread agreement among the talks parties, and the governments committed to reviewing the situation carefully, with the hope that the UDP would eventually rejoin the negotiations.
