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.”

In January, the EU received immense criticism for a now-aborted plan to restrict the export of Covid-19 vaccines through Northern Ireland, with Northern Ireland First Minister Arlene Foster calling it an “incredible act of hostility.”
