Ireland could yet receive a positive spin-off in employment as a result of President Trump's clampdown on immigration from certain Muslim-majority countries.
Ireland could yet receive a positive spin-off in employment as a result of President Trump's clampdown on immigration from certain Muslim-majority countries.
Clare Junior Minister Pat Breen was on a trade mission in Dubai early this week, after President Trump's order on immigration targeted other Muslim-majority countries.
Efforts to secure business from this region will now continue, and Minister Breen believes that President Trump's policy will turn some away from the US.
However, he says Ireland can't rely on that alone as the country bids to foster increased trade.
