I have not yet spoken to Vice President elect J.D. Vance. However, I look forward to working constructively with the new US administration on a wide range of issues of mutual interest and priority.

Maintaining and growing our close and mutually beneficial relationship with the US is among Ireland's highest foreign policy priorities, including through frequent high-level political engagement with American interlocutors. This has been a priority for successive Irish Governments. It will continue to be an important part of Ireland's foreign policy going forward, as reflected in the draft Programme for Government.
