British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak will host US President Joe Biden in Belfast, Northern Ireland next week. Downing Street gave this information on Sunday. Britain is celebrating the 25th anniversary of the ‘Belfast’ (Good Friday) Treaty. A peace treaty for the region was signed in April 1998. Biden will arrive in Britain on Tuesday evening and Sunak will meet him outside the Air Force One aircraft. After this, the US President will attend several programs including bilateral talks with Sunak. The treaty changed the political and economic landscape of Northern Ireland.
“The Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement was an incredible moment in our country’s history,” Sunak said. The Indian-origin British leader said that Northern Ireland is full of opportunity and talent. The US strongly supported the settlement process and played a key role in ending separatist violence and promoting peace in Northern Ireland. The ‘Good Friday’ agreement was signed by the then British Prime Minister Tony Blair and his Irish counterpart Bertie Ahern and supported by the then US President Bill Clinton. It ended the 30-year-old conflict in Northern Ireland.
