Ireland is expected to be one of the most affected countries when President Trump announces a new round of tariffs later this week.

EU goods are expected to face a tariff of about 20% when entering the United States.

Among EU countries, Ireland is the most reliant on the US as an export market.

In 2024, Irish goods exports to the US were worth €73bn (£61bn), almost a third of the country’s total exports.

      America here. We despise the orange man. His disapproval rating here is almost 70%.

      Please don’t lump all of us in together. You have to realize that a lot of our states have the same population as whole countries in the EU. Voters from the uneducated red states can sway the vote for all. It’s like if votes from Russia counted toward your elected officials. It sucks!

      But I promise you that half of the United States hate how this is going. Also when you say America, you’re lumping in other countries. I’m sure Canada does not want to be grouped with us. lol
