Northern Ireland will see a 10% tariff imposed on goods exported to the US starting Thursday, following President Trump’s new trade measures. With Northern Ireland exporting about 1.5 billion worth of goods primarily in pharmaceuticals and machinery, this move affects local economies significantly. The Republic of Ireland will incur a higher 20% tariff as part of the broader EU sanctions. Leaders like Michelle O'Neill emphasize protecting local interests while navigating this trade uncertainty, aiming for economic stability in the region amid challenges posed by these tariffs.
"My fellow Americans, this is Liberation Day... It's our declaration of economic independence."
"We must ensure that our all-island economy continues to thrive... to create better opportunities for all our people."
