GOOD FRIDAY AGREEMENT 1998July 6th, 2023
When I discussed with Ógra Shinn Féin giving a talk to them, we eventually came up with the idea of the topic being the Good Friday Agreement. This was both because of its fundamental importance and the fact that I had been engaged to a certain extent in the buildup to it, and was also present at the final week of negotiations in Belfast, given the familiarity with the subject that that implies. We also came to the conclusion that it would make it more interesting for me to give an account of how I was involved in the course of assessing the importance of that Agreement. This was rather than just offering a dry exposition concerning the document. At the same time, let me stress that this is not to overestimate my role in the affair as I was but a small cog in a big machine. Nonetheless, telling a story to a certain extent can be more interesting than just engaging in an academic type of analysis.
