We are both “Indians,” and the similarities are beneficial
Dublin: British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak and Ireland’s “future” Prime Minister Leo Varadkar are hoping that India’s relationship will warm both countries’ relations. Through that, Leo Varadkar is also hoping to solve the problems, including the administrative deadlock in Northern Ireland.
Ireland has strong economic and trade ties with the United Kingdom. In the context of Brexit, there has been some distance, but more important than that are the problems of Northern Ireland. There is no government system there. Next year is the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement, and Ireland is also concerned about whether the Assembly will be able to reopen by then. Varadkar believes that by working together, the British and Irish governments can persuade their respective parties to do good for the people of Northern Ireland. While these comments may be well received in Britain, it remains to be seen how far Northern Ireland’s political parties will welcome them.
Leo Varadkar hopes Rishi Sunak’s Indian connection will benefit him.
In a private interview, Leo Varadkar stated that he believes the two leaders’ Indian similarities will aid in the restoration of good relations. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has never met him in person. There is no personal connection. However, both of us are of Indian background. “Both of our fathers were GPs,” said Varadkar.
“My father, Ashok Varadkar, is of Indian origin. He married Miriam, a nurse from Dungarvan, Waterford. GP in West Dublin. There are many differences as well as similarities. Varadkar jokingly said that he is not a millionaire.
Looking forward to seeing Sunak.
I’m looking forward to meeting Sunak. Rishi is believed to be a respectable politician. Varadkar also said that he thinks his economic policy is correct. He is a known Brexit supporter, but he also voted for Theresa May. This shows that Sunak is also a practical politician.
Varadkar faces a number of challenges in the coming months, including the British-Irish relationship and Northern Ireland, so the relationship between the governments in London and Dublin is critical.
