The Vice President of Sinn Féin, Pat Doherty, said today that recent statements by DUP deputy leader Peter Robinson and other members of the party seem to indicate they are uncomfortable with the core principles of the Good Friday Agreement.
Mr Doherty said that the DUP appears to be "moving backwards from a deal based on power-sharing, equality and respect".
However, he reiterated that a deal will only be done on the basis of the framework laid out in the Agreement.
