Donald Trump spune că unificarea Irlandei ar fi "un lucru extraordinar", după întâlnirea cu premierul irlandez

During his visit to Dublin, US President Donald Trump expressed a strong desire for the reunification of Ireland and Northern Ireland, a statement likely to be controversial in London and among unionists. His comments followed British Prime Minister Andy Burnham's assertion that a referendum on Northern Ireland's exit from the UK is not currently an option. Trump emphasized that while the UK would have a say, he believes unification would be a fantastic outcome. The Good Friday Agreement stipulates that any referendum must be initiated by the British government. Despite polls showing a majority in Northern Ireland favoring remaining in the UK, the topic of reunification has gained traction since Brexit. Protests against Trump and the war were planned during his visit, highlighting the divided sentiments surrounding his presence.
