It was a pleasure to host CEO of @HainanAirlines Mr. Yu Chaojie at the Embassy. Hainan Airlines offers a direct air route from Beijing to Dublin, which is an important link in strengthening people-to-people engagement
A pleasure to meet Markus Töns MdB, member of the German-Irish Parliamentary Friendship Group, as I begin my farewell calls. Thank you for your support, particularly during the Brexit negotiations and your friendship towards Ireland.

He will be remembered for his contribution to German & European politics, particularly his role in German reunification

Wolfgang Schäuble hat unser Land mehr als ein halbes Jahrhundert geprägt: als Abgeordneter, Minister und Bundestagspräsident. Mit ihm verliert Deutschland einen scharfen Denker, leidenschaftlichen Politiker und streitbaren Demokraten. Meine Gedanken sind heute bei seiner Familie.View quoted post on X
