Response by the UUP to the Irish Government opening statement

Writing Peace: David Trimble Collection

The response by the Ulster Unionist Party (UUP), authored by James Molyneaux, Ken Maginnis, Jim Nicholson, and Christopher McGimpsey, critiques the opening statement presented by the Government of the Irish Republic during the Strand Two Agenda-Setting Meeting on 19 June 1992. The UUP expresses disappointment in the lack of tangible proposals from the Irish Republic's delegation, particularly regarding Articles 2 and 3 of the Irish Constitution and the status of Northern Ireland. The UUP emphasizes the need for the Irish Republic to acknowledge Northern Ireland as an integral part of the United Kingdom and to address the democratic process and legal frameworks more seriously. Despite the criticisms, the UUP acknowledges some positive responses from the Irish delegation, indicating a potential basis for moving forward in the negotiations.
