The IAUC Encourages Positive Response To Anticipated IRA
Repudiation Of Violence
Washington, DC July 15, 2005 — The Irish American Unity
Conference (IAUC) anticipates a positive statement from the
Irish Republican Army (IRA) in response to Gerry Adams'
request for their commitment to purely political and
democratic means. In order to advance the Irish peace
process, the IAUC hopes that all parties will respond
favorably to the soon-to-be-released IRA's response.
The Good Friday Agreement, which involved all political
parties in Northern Ireland, the British and Irish
governments as well as the United States, was signed on
April 10, 1998. Elections have twice been held under this
agreement.
However, the British government has suspended the elected
Assembly and taken back direct control of Northern Ireland.
The key recommendations of the Patton Commission on
policing have not been implemented and the Northern Ireland
Human Rights commission has become dysfunctional. The IAUC
believes that the British and Irish governments should
implement these and all the other provisions of the Good
Friday Agreement.
The IRA's anticipated statement repudiating anything but
peaceful means of problem resolution should, in our
opinion, mean that all parties should fully embrace and
implement the democratically approved Good Friday
Agreement.
The full text of Gerry Adams address to the IRA (04/06/05)

The Irish American Unity Conference is a non- partisan,
non-sectarian, American based human rights organization
working for peace and justice for the people of the six
counties in the north of Ireland.
