Ireland’s minister for foreign affairs and minister for defense, Simon Coveney, criticised the UK for trying to secure a trade deal with the United States without European Union involvement.
“This idea that Britain can get there first is narrow minded thinking, frankly,” Coveney told the Times in an interview on Saturday.
“It’s a perverse nationalism when actually Britain and the EU should work together as partners,” he declared.
Moreover, Coveney criticised the UK’s delay in performing agreed-to checks on food products transported from Great Britain to Northern Ireland, claiming the delay “has reinforced an awful lot of the doubts in Brussels about whether or not this really is a British government we can rely on to be a trusted partner.”

Many have wondered why the US has taken to unilaterally imposing such destabilizing selective standards under the hypocritical pretext of supporting its subjectively defined “rules-based order” when none other than America itself was the architect of the prior order within which it successfully became the global hegemon and now seeks to replace. The global systemic transition to multipolarity, […]
Guest Post by PF Whalen There was a time, not long ago, when calling someone a ‘racist’ was about the worst possible insult we could give. Depending on the individual, such an accusation might have even been considered fighting words. In the aftermath of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, most Americans recognized the evils […]
