i25472

This document provides the text of a press statement given by Bill Clinton, likely in response to the joint communique released by John Major and John Bruton on 28 February 1996. Clinton welcomed the announcement made by Major and Bruton where they outlined their plans to start consultations with Northern Ireland parties to reach an agreement about the elective process that would lead to all-party negotiations, as well as the procedural framework for the negotiations and potential referendums to support it. Clinton also calls for a ceasefire, a call which is directed to PIRA although he does not explicitly name the organisation.
