FitzGerald Calls for Anglo-Irish Summit on Northern Ireland
Former Irish prime minister Garret FitzGerald urged an Anglo-Irish summit with Margaret Thatcher within two months to revive cooperation and end sectarian bloodshed in Northern Ireland. He criticized Britain for not recognizing the nationalist identity of Ireland's Catholic minority and stressed the need for a coalition with Fine Gael and Labour after the election. The move follows 13 years of tension and a recent general election shift in Dublin.
