New Brexit deal restores balance to Northern Ireland, says PM RIshi Sunak
Political parties in Northern Ireland will need "the time and the space to consider the detail" of the Windsor Framework, Mr Sunak said.
The DUP objected to the Northern Ireland Protocol creating an effective trade border across the Irish Sea from Great Britain. But the brake can also only be used when the Northern Ireland Executive is fully functioning - creating an incentive for all parties to go back into government., easing the way for Stormont to return.
The party's vice-president, Michelle O'Neill, called for the DUP to return to devolved government, adding: "We always said that with pragmatism, solutions could be found."President Joe Biden said he hoped "Northern Ireland's political institutions are soon back up and running".
