Taoiseach Leo Varadkar delivers speech at Dublin Castle banquet in President Biden’s honour

Leo Varadkar hosted the US president for a banquet dinner at Dublin Castle. Opening the banquet, Mr Varadkar mentioned Ireland and the US shared a “similar past and philosophy”. He added: “When we become beacons of hope as well as of liberty, helping others to find their own paths to freedom, and the freedom to achieve freedom – that is the promise of America, and it is the promise of Ireland too.” Mr Biden acquired a standing ovation as he completed his speech wherein he mirrored on his household roots and informed the viewers: “No barrier is simply too thick or too sturdy for Ireland or the United States of America.”
