President Donald Trump touched down in Ireland Saturday morning, where he will hold talks with the country’s leaders before attending a tournament at one of his golf courses.
Trump, wearing a red tie, was greeted on the tarmac by Ireland’s Minister of Finance Simon Harris, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade and Minister for Defence Helen McEntee, US Ambassador to Ireland Edward Walsh and his wife Lynn, Irish Ambassador to the US Geraldine Byrne Nason and Chief of Protocol Patricia O’Brien.
The last time Trump visited Ireland as president was during his first term in June 2019.
Trump will hold a bilateral meeting with Taoiseach Micheál Martin and deliver remarks to business leaders at US Ambassador to Ireland Edward Walsh’s residence, a White House official told CNN.
The president’s meetings with Irish political leaders will touch on bilateral economic cooperation, creating business opportunities for US industry, and discussing international issues of mutual interest, the official said.
While Trump has meetings in Dublin Saturday, he heads west on Sunday, where he will attend the Irish Open at his golf club in Doonbeg.
Hosting Martin in the Oval Office for a visit on St. Patrick’s Day in March, Trump referred to Connolly as a “he” when asked by an Irish reporter about her comments about “violations of international law” in the Middle East.
“Look, he’s lucky I exist, that’s all I can say,” Trump said. “If you’re gonna allow countries that are sick and demented – and they are demented – to have nuclear weapons–everybody in the whole world should be very thankful.”

美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周六上午抵达爱尔兰,他将与该国领导人举行会谈,之后前往他名下的高尔夫球场参加锦标赛。
特朗普系着一条红色领带,在停机坪上受到了爱尔兰财政部长西蒙·哈里斯、外交贸易部长兼国防部长海伦·麦肯蒂、美国驻爱尔兰大使爱德华·沃尔什及其夫人琳恩、爱尔兰驻美国大使杰拉尔丁·伯恩·纳森和礼宾司司长帕特里夏·奥布莱恩的迎接。
特朗普上一次以总统身份访问爱尔兰是在他第一个总统任期内的2019年6月。
一位白宫官员告诉 CNN,特朗普将与爱尔兰总理米歇尔·马丁举行双边会晤,并在美国驻爱尔兰大使爱德华·沃尔什的官邸向商界领袖发表讲话。
这位官员表示,总统与爱尔兰政治领导人的会晤将涉及双边经济合作、为美国工业创造商机以及讨论共同关心的国际问题。
特朗普周六在都柏林举行会议,周日他将前往西部,在他位于杜恩贝格的高尔夫俱乐部参加爱尔兰公开赛。
今年三月圣帕特里克节,特朗普在椭圆形办公室接待了来访的马丁。当一位爱尔兰记者问及康诺利关于中东“违反国际法”的评论时,特朗普称康诺利为“他”。
“听着,他能活下来就不错了,我只能这么说,”特朗普说道。“如果你允许那些病态且疯狂的国家——而它们确实疯狂——拥有核武器,那么全世界的人都应该为此感到庆幸。”
