The Democratic Unionist Party (DUP) has issued a formal notice of indictment to the Chairman of the Multi-Party Talks, alleging that certain participants, specifically the Progressive Unionist Party (PUP) and the Ulster Democratic Party (UDP), are in blatant violation of the Mitchell Principles of Non-Violence. The DUP argues that these principles are fundamental for ensuring a fair and stable negotiation process and that any breach, particularly involving threats or acts of violence, jeopardizes the stability of Northern Ireland and the success of the talks. The DUP's complaint stems from a statement by the Combined Loyalist Military Command (CLMC) threatening violence against two loyalists, which the PUP and UDP spokesmen failed to condemn. The DUP insists that the talks should be adjourned until a decision is made regarding the expulsion of these parties, emphasizing that adherence to non-violence is crucial for their continued participation.
