Disintegration dialogue can legalize paramilitary, gives long warnings

Judicial Minister Naomi Long has warned that the government may “legitimacy in our communities” to detect formal connections with paramilitary groups.

Long stated that this step is “absolutely flawed”, which can “undo the very good work” by adding attractive and platforming paramilitary groups.

This is the appointment of an independent expert after the UK and Irish governments to assess whether the qualification and support for the idea will help bring about the disintegration of paramilitary organizations.

State Secretary Hillary Ben said that it was not the option of “the beginning of a formal process” or “existing law enforcement and criminal justice measures”.

“I also want to clarify that no financial proposal will be made to paramilitary groups or individuals involved in return for violence and ongoing damage,” Ben said.

The proposal was suggested by the Independent Reporting Commission (IRC), which monitors police and government efforts to deal with paramilitaryism.

Government of UK said in 2023 The idea was under serious thought,

Speaking at a press conferenceNaomi Long said that plans by the government could provide credibility to organizations that were working for their departments and other “de-Legitimis”.

“So to join with those people and to give them a platform and a credibility, which is quite clearly, we will not present any other criminal gang, which we are trying to receive, contrary to that It seems completely to the opposite, “he said.

In an interview with BBC Radio Ulster’s Additional ProgramLong said that these organizations have “many” opportunities in 27 years to choose criminality or completely change their direction, and many of them “infections in organized crime gangs”.

“Why will we give these organizations a validity in our communities when we are working continuously in recent years, reaching the point where we are today?

“Where 79% of people in our communities recognize that these people are criminals.”

During the press conference, Long said: “The only conversation with paramilitary people is to tell them to get out of the stage at this time.

“It should have been long ago and I believe this was the only conversation.”

The latest IRC report was published on Tuesday – it described the appointment as “a significant step in the journey to meet the goal of ending paramilitary in North Ireland and all”.

Nearly 30 years after the Good Friday Agreement, many Republican and loyal organizations are active.

The new IRA, such as the peace deal opposed the deal, such as the new IRA, continue to target police officers.

In addition, the Irish National Liberation Army (INLA), Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) and Ulster Defense Association (UDA) are heavyly involved in the aligning group criminality.

Tánaiste (Irish Deputy Prime Minister) Simon Harris said the IRC report “explains the unacceptable reality that paramilitary-linked intimidation, tremendous control and threats exist and affect communities in northern Ireland”.

“We need to ensure that we are making every effort to eliminate it completely.”

He said that his government was pleased to be part of the joint appointment of an independent expert to see that “what is merit, and support for support, to bring about paramilitary group infection to a formal process of engagement, disintegration For”.

“It is my hope that this initiative will move forward to our shared objective of ending us once and for all.”
