Taoiseach warns US tariffs could harm Irish whiskey market

irishmirror.ie

Taoiseach Micheal Martin has expressed concern over the potential for US tariffs on EU alcoholic drinks, particularly affecting Irish whiskey. He noted that the Irish whiskey market has seen significant growth in the US, and tariffs could harm the Irish economy. During his visit to Washington, Martin emphasized the need for a strategic European response to the trade dispute with the US. He highlighted that the EU has a trade surplus in spirits, which could be impacted by the proposed tariffs. Martin also addressed domestic issues, calling for increased investment in artificial intelligence and a more balanced discussion about data centers. He acknowledged energy challenges but expressed optimism about future offshore wind developments.
