It would be “a mistake” for Ireland to boycott a shamrock presentation to the American president over US military aid in Israel, the Taoiseach has said.
Leo Varadkar will travel to Washington DC next week where he will present Joe Biden with shamrock as part of annual engagements on St Patrick’s Day.
