The article discusses issues related to the Good Friday Agreement in Great Britain. The implementation of the agreement has been stalled for months because of leader of Northern Ireland's Ulster Unionist Party, David Trimble's, demands which are a clear violation of the Good Friday accords. British Prime Minister Tony Blair, frustrated at the lack of progress in the talks, launched a mid-June verbal assault on Protestant leaders for undermining the Good Friday Agreement in theft insistence on decommissioning. Blair has declared June 30, 1999 to be the final deadline on settlement of the impasse.
