UUP press release on David Trimble's meetings with representatives

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The Ulster Unionist Party's press release details a series of meetings held by David Trimble with various parties involved in the ongoing stand-off, including District Officers of the Portadown Orange Order, ACC Ronnie Flannagan, Sir John Wheeler, Sir Patrick Mayhew, and John Holmes. Despite these extensive efforts and discussions, the document precises that residents of Garvaghy Road refused to engage in meaningful dialogue to reach a compromise. The press release criticizes the residents' refusal as a lack of willingness by the nationalist community to tolerate Protestant heritage, suggesting that such behavior could hinder future negotiations on Northern Ireland's future. The document underscores the challenges faced in fostering mutual understanding and compromise between different communities.
