Devolved power has been returned to Northern Ireland

"Northern Ireland has shown us that the noble, and rare, art of statesmanship is alive and well - and works", writes Tom Foley, US ambassador to Ireland. "Statesmanship is an amalgam of subtle, and not-so-subtle, attributes, among them leadership, patience, persistence, evenhandedness, courage and commitment to a high purpose. But statesmen and stateswomen are almost more easily defined by what they are not. They are not petty, squabbling, divisive or self-serving. Three people critical to the peace process deserve special recognition for their statesmanship - Tony Blair, Bertie Ahern and George Mitchell [US peace envoy to the North]. ... As advocates for their communities, Ian Paisley, Gerry Adams, Peter Robinson and Martin McGuinness have not until now been in roles calling for statesmanship, but they have shown remarkable leadership. Their turn at statesmanship lies ahead in their new role representing all the people of Northern Ireland."
