British Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak struck a new deal with the European Union on post-Brexit trade rules for Northern Ireland and said it would pave the way for a new chapter in London’s relationship with the bloc.

Standing alongside European Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen at a news conference in Windsor, Sunak said the two sides had agreed to remove any sense of a border between Britain and its province – a situation that had angered politicians on both sides.
