Wednesday, 25 February 1998

i25603

The document is a paper by the British Government addressing paramilitary activity in Northern Ireland, presented to the Liaison subcommittee on Confidence Building Measures on 25 February 1998. It emphasizes the importance of building confidence in the community and highlights the detrimental impact of paramilitary actions, such as punishment attacks and disappearances of individuals presumed murdered by terrorists. The paper condemns coercion tactics forcing individuals to leave Northern Ireland and stresses the need for a thorough cessation of all paramilitary activities to achieve a peaceful settlement. The Government calls for cooperation to prevent such actions and urges parties associated with paramilitary groups to renounce violence for a stable future in Northern Ireland.
