President Joe Biden arrived Tuesday in Northern Ireland for a trip that will also take him to the Republic of Ireland to mark the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement and visit his ancestral homeland.
Members of Congress long interested in U.S.-Irish relations were also expected to visit for events related to the anniversary, including Massachusetts Rep. Richard E. Neal, the Democratic leader of the Friends of Ireland Caucus.
In an interview last week, Neal spoke of how much the situation has changed since the landmark 1998 agreement, which largely resolved decades of violent conflict between those who wanted Northern Ireland to remain in the United Kingdom and Irish nationalists.
