Trump again defends Irish reunification and says "a lot of people" support the idea

Sábado13 September 2026 at 19:50

Donald Trump again defended Irish reunification this Sunday, saying he considers it natural to join Northern Ireland to the Republic of Ireland. The president of the United States expressed support for the idea of uniting the two Irish territories.

During his statements, Trump said that "a lot of people" support the idea of Irish reunification. The politician did not specify who he was referring to with that statement.

When questioned about Scotland, Trump refused to comment, saying: "I'm not going to talk about that yet. I'll leave that for another day."

Why this matters

Trump, as US president, has significant influence on relations between the United Kingdom and Ireland, and his statements on reunification could affect political negotiations in Northern Ireland, a region that has faced political and identity challenges for decades. Readers in the region pay attention to comments from world figures that could influence the future political status of the territory.
