TURNBERRY (Scotland) (Sputnik) — He added that Sinn Fein would try their best to main political stability as they seek an urgent meeting with the Irish government, European institutions and with their counterparts in Scotland "to discuss how we move forward in the best interests of all of our people."
"The people of the North of Ireland, nationalists, republicans, unionists and others have made it clear at the polls that they wish to remain in the EU. The British government now need to take account of that and recognise that reality and allow the people of the North to have their say on their own future. Dragging us out of Europe will be to the detriment of all our citizens and will be bad for business, trade, investment, and wider society," McGuinness warned.
On Thursday, the United Kingdom held a referendum to determine whether or not the country should leave the European Union. According to the final results, 51.9 percent of voters, or 17.4 million people, decided to support Brexit, while about 16.1 million opposed it.
