Thursday, 27 February 1997

i28084

In a letter dated 27 February 1997, addressed to Mr Tapani Lausti, the British diplomat Donald Lamont expressed his disappointment over the lack of consultation with the FCO in preparing a discussion paper on UK/Irish relations. The letter criticizes the paper's portrayal of President Robinson's 1996 visit to Britain, arguing that it misrepresents the visit's success and the amicable agreements reached on sensitive issues such as nomenclature. The representative highlights the positive developments in UK/Irish relations, including high-level visits, security cooperation, and cultural exchanges, emphasizing that the relationship is healthier and more vigorous than the paper suggests.
