I call on everyone of goodwill both in Ireland and abroad to join now in ensuring that the beginning of peace becomes a reality, before this year is out. Let us together open a new era in our history.

It's a great day.

I am convinced that nobody should be afraid of peace.

We believe that with good will on both sides, that a compromise could be worked out.
