Classified documents uncovered by the whistle-blowing website WikiLeaks
detail the full extent of ongoing American involvement and concern in the
region's affairs – years after the onset of the peace process and formation
of a power-sharing Executive.
The cables offer an unprecedented insight into backstage diplomacy and
international relations as conducted by the world’s sole superpower.
Around 1,900 sensitive dispatches – many designated confidential or secret
– have been obtained, detailing years of covert analysis and scrutiny of
Northern Irish, Republic of Ireland and international matters.
