The United States will “protect and defend” the Good Friday Agreement, the US Special Envoy to Northern Ireland said.

Mick Mulvaney said the agreement could be “at risk” because of the UK Government’s controversial Internal Market Bill, but that it was something the United States was “very interested in seeing not happen”.
