Taoiseach urged to recall peace forum
Bertie Ahern was today urged to recall a forum of political parties on both sides of the border to resolve the crisis over the future of the IRA.
As the Minister for Foreign Affairs Dermot Ahern prepared to meet Sinn Féin’s Martin McGuinness and SDLP leader Mark Durkan separately today in Derry following two IRA statements this week, Green Party leader Trevor Sargent called for calm and a reconvening of the National Forum for Peace and Reconciliation.
