Dear friends,
The 29th March marked the next milestone in the UK’s process of departing the European Union as Prime Minister Theresa May triggered Article 50.
We were pleased to see that Prime Minister May's letter included important references to Ireland and Irish issues, as noted in the Government Statement in response to the triggering. As Minister Flanagan’s statement in reaction to Prime Minister May’s letter makes clear, this moment marks the beginning of a long and complex set of negotiations but Ireland is ready for these negotiations.
Le meas agus gach dea ghuí,
Dan Mulhall
Ambassador
