President-elect Donald Trump will not take office until the inauguration on January 20th. We look forward to working with the Trump Administration in the months and years ahead in the spirit of our shared values of freedom, democracy and enterprise. We continue to work with the current Biden Administration to ensure Northern Ireland can continue to prosper. The 10th April marks 27 years since the Belfast (Good Friday) Agreement was signed - an achievement of which the UK, Ireland and the US are justifiably proud.
