  "account": "U.S. President Donald Trump announced plans to eliminate a 10% tariff on Irish whiskey imports, according to the Associated Press on September 14. The decision came during a speech at the Irish Open golf tournament, where the president explained that he had been urged to take action by \"everyone,\" including Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin and several golfers. Trump stated that he would remove the tariff \"on behalf of the United States of America.\" Currently, Irish whiskey is subject to the general tariff that Trump has imposed on most European Union imports, which was reduced from 15% to 10% in July. In April, Trump announced the removal of certain tariffs on UK whiskey, including Scotch and Northern Irish spirits, creating a disparity with Ireland. During a meeting with Irish Prime Minister Micheál Martin on September 12, Trump expressed his desire for a unified Ireland. He told reporters that the reunification of the Irish Republic and Northern Ireland is \"going to happen eventually\" and that it would be a \"fantastic thing.\" Trump noted that the UK would have a say in the matter, but emphasized his support for a united Ireland.",
