'A lot of people have been very critical of President Trump, including me on occasion,' Taoiseach Leo Varadkar conceded.
The prime minister of Ireland has made it clear that protests during any visit to Ireland by president Donald Trump are not just allowed—but welcome.
“I will have the opportunity, as I have in the past, to actually raise those issues with him in person. But I understand that other people will wish to do so by means of protest. And in a democracy, protest is allowed and is welcome,” the prime minister added. It is expected that Trump will visit Ireland following his U.K. state visit, which is taking place 3-5 June.
“The links that exits between Ireland and America are very strong, they’re about the economy and jobs, they’re about citizenship, they’re family links too and they’re cultural links. We want to keep those links strong, regardless of who is Taoiseach or President.” He was less open to saying if he agreed with any of Trump’s policies, saying: “Let me think about that.”
