  "account": "On the final day of his two-day visit to Ireland, US President Donald Trump announced plans to eliminate all tariffs on Irish whiskey. The announcement came after the president presented the winner's trophy at the Trump International Golf Resort in Doonbeg, Co Clare to the champion, Shane Lowry. Whiskey distilled in the Republic of Ireland currently faces a standard 15% tariff, while whiskey made in Northern Ireland or other parts of the UK is free from tariffs. This move comes after Trump expressed his support for a united Ireland, stating that it would be a natural progression. During his visit, Trump met with Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin and President Catherine Connolly. In his address to the crowd before the trophy presentation, Trump revealed he had discussed the whiskey tariffs with both Martin and Lowry. Protesters opposed to Trump's visit marched through Dublin, while some local residents praised the golf course for providing employment and economic benefits to the area.",
