Ulster leaders to visit Ground Zero

The leaders of Northern Ireland’s power-sharing government were today preparing to pay tribute to the victims of last September’s terror attacks on the United States during a visit to the rubble of the World Trade Centre.

Stormont First Minister David Trimble and Deputy First Minister Mark Durkan were laying a wreath in memory of the September 11 victims during a visit to the Ground Zero site where New York’s Twin Towers once stood.
