ETA Ceasefire

Asked for a reaction to the ETA ceasefire and whether we supported the Spanish government opening talks with ETA, the PMOS said that we welcomed the ETA statement and we now hoped to see the commitments made in their statement delivered in practice. Any internal decisions that may need to be made about talks were entirely a matter for the Spanish government. One thing we had learnt in Northern Ireland was that it could be useful to have external support but the detail had to be sorted out between the parties on the ground. This would guide our approach.
