Brexit will destroy NI peace deal, says Gerry Adams
By EUobserver
Taking Northern Ireland out of the EU will "destroy" the 1998 peace settlement that quelled sectarian violence in the province, Sinn Fein leader Gerry Adams said over the weekend. "The British government’s intention to take the north out of the EU, despite the wish of the people there to remain, is a hostile action," said Adams. In Northern Ireland, 56 percent voted to stay.
