A delegation of high-ranking US politicians, including Speaker of the House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi, travelled to the Irish border on Thursday between Donegal and Derry.  

The US House of Representatives speaker visited the Irish border which has become a stumbling block to the UK’s EU withdrawal.

She was greeted by anti-Brexit campaigners during her short stop at the frontier on Thursday morning.

Speaking at the Derry-Donegal border, Ms Pelosi said: “We have said we are guarantors of the Good Friday Agreements because we believe it is fair to both sides, that’s why they agreed to it.

“We come here out of respect for the courage of those who have participated in the Good Friday accord.”
