Sunday, 15 January 1995

i28370

An Ulster Unionist Party paper, dated 15 January 1995, outlining their perspective on the tactics of the PIRA/Sinn Féin [sic] and the challenges faced by the British Government in dealing with terrorism, disbandment, and decommissioning of weapons. It highlights the internal tensions within the PIRA, particularly between the leadership of McGuinness and Adams and the more militant factions, and criticizes the British Government's concessions to Sinn Féin. The document proposes an alternative strategy involving the establishment of an international Disarmament Commission to oversee the decommissioning of terrorist weapons, suggesting that this approach would place the PIRA under international scrutiny and pressure. The Ulster Unionist Party emphasizes the need for the British Government to adopt a more proactive stance and leverage international support to address the ongoing terrorist threat effectively.
