Peter welcomed President Biden to Northern Ireland in April in his capacity of Shadow Secretary of State for Northern Ireland with Biden’s visit coinciding with the 25th anniversary celebrations of the signing Good Friday Agreement, which brought peace to Northern Ireland.
Peter noted of the President’s visit “Today’s visit offers the possibility of economic investment, wealth creation and stronger relationships that we must seize. It was an honour to welcome President Biden to Northern Ireland on behalf of the Labour Party.”
Peter also accompanied Sir Keir Starmer to events including an event at Queens University Belfast celebrating the success of peace in Northern Ireland and the challenges that face Northern Ireland going forward.
