Northern Ireland: Peace Talks Yield Accord Aimed at Ending Decades of Violence in Northern Ireland: New Institutions to Allow for Sharing of Ulster Power

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  13 February 2009

Extract

[A]s promised, [I have] Jim Steinberg here, the President's Deputy National Security Advisor. Jim is going to go through the sequence of meetings that the President has, beginning with his meeting with Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams tonight and the leaders of the parties tomorrow, at what is, I think Jim would agree, a very critical moment in the Northern Ireland peace process and one in which the coincidence of St. Patrick's Day and the meeting of all of the party leaders here provides the President with, I think, an important opportunity to help the parties and the government of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland to move the work forward.
