"All New Yorkers are delighted that the Irish people have given a resounding 'yes' to the Peace Accords. Today's results show the desire of voters from both the North and South to work together to reach a peaceful settlement. We hope that after 30 years of armed struggle, peace, justice and economic opportunity are now close at hand for all of Ireland. This is truly an historic day."
