UK minister to meet with US lawmakers on restoration of Northern Ireland government
==========
Chris Heaton-Harris, the British Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, will travel to Washington to discuss the restoration of Northern Ireland's devolved government with US lawmakers and promote its economic potential. Northern Ireland recently appointed its first Irish nationalist leader after a two-year deadlock over post-Brexit trade frictions. Heaton-Harris will meet with representatives from the US State Department, the US National Security Council, and businesses to highlight Northern Ireland as a place to trade, invest, visit, and study. The US has played a significant role in brokering a peace deal in Northern Ireland in 1998. President Joe Biden has expressed pride in his ancestral ties to Ireland and has urged Northern Irish political leaders to restore the government with the promise of US investment. Heaton-Harris will also discuss the implementation of a new law that gives conditional amnesties to former soldiers and militants, which Ireland has challenged legally.
