TIME's London bureau chief Barry Hillenbrand agrees that the process is far from done. "There's a lot of posturing going on. But David Trimble, leader of the Ulster Unionists and the heavyweight...
...year he was invited to the White House, but this year his reception in Washington will be low-key. The Clinton Administration has forbidden him to raise funds. Until he has succeeded in leading his friends in the I.R.A. down the road to peace, Adams will remain--as Seamus Mallon suggests--quite isolated...
