Sinn Féin in call to world leaders

A Sinn Féin MP tonight vowed to use his visit to a forum of world leaders next week to urge the British and Irish governments to implement the Good Friday Agreement.

Martin McGuinness, who is due to take part in a World Economic Forum session on the Northern Ireland peace process in Switzerland in eight days time, said he would tell the gathering of world leaders and opinion formers that London and Dublin must not allow hard-line unionists to frustrate the implementation of the 1998 Agreement.
