Minister Peter BurkeUS election rhetoric may not materialise into policy - BurkeMinister for Enterprise, Peter Burke, believes that the reelection of Donald Trump as President of the United States will not be as damaging for the Irish economy as some commentators are predicting. “A lot of the rhetoric we've heard during the US campaign, as we've seen in the past, doesn't always materialise into policy,” Burke said. “It will be interesting to see which of his viewpoints are translated into policy once his advisors and team are appointed. Acknowledging that "the multilateral system is under greater pressure than ever before", Minister Burke says "we must do our best to work through these challenges". But from my experience travelling in the US, it’s clear that businesses choose Ireland not just for our corporation tax rate, but for our talent pool.
