The Taoiseach has condemned the British government for what he called its “bad faith efforts” to undermine a Treaty freely entered into.
Micheál Martin was speaking in the European Parliament in Strasbourg this morning. He was the third EU leader to address MEPs this year on the topic "This is Europe". Mr Martin said the European Union has worked hard to find ways to minimise the negative impacts of Brexit on businesses and citizens of Northern Ireland.
Dublin MEP Ciarán Cuffe says Mr Martin spoke well and was clear about his views on the Protocol.
