This Government looks forward to engaging and working closely with the new President-elect. The Prime Minister spoke to Mr Biden and assured him that the UK Government would continue to uphold the Belfast Agreement in all circumstances. The Secretary of State for Northern Ireland is also engaging with US politicians and congressmen of all parties.
