The priority in Northern Ireland must be on mending relationships and not planning for a border poll, Ireland's Foreign Affairs Minister has said.
Simon Coveney said there is a "huge problem" with trust in the region and work has to be done first to "settle" the protocol issue and ensure the Stormont institutions are functioning.
"The focus for now in Northern Ireland has got to be on relationships," Mr Coveney told RTE's Morning Ireland programme.
