Gerry Adams calls for victim-centred resolution

Thursday, 8 May 2014

Writing in this morning's Guardian, Sinn Féin president Gerry Adams calls for a 'victim-centred way' to deal with the legacy of violence and conflict in Northern Ireland.

He writes:

'Sinn Féin is committed to dealing with the past, including the issue of victims and their families. We have put forward our own proposals for an independent international truth recovery process, which both governments have rejected. We have also signed up for the compromise proposals presented by US envoys Richard Haass and Meghan O'Sullivan. The two unionist parties and the British government have not.'
