Any threat to peace in Ireland as a result of Brexit is due to the EUs \u201cpoliticization of the issue,\u201d U.K. Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said Wednesday during a visit to Washington.<\/p>\n

After the U.K. government attracted huge criticism for its decision to rewrite elements of the Brexit Withdrawal Agreement, Raab sought to use the visit to the U.S. capital to build transatlantic support for the controversial Internal Market Bill<\/a> \u2014 and also turned up the rhetoric against the EU.<\/p>\n

Speaking at a press conference alongside U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, Raab told reporters he had \u201cpositive conversations not just with [Pompeo] and the administration but also with congressmen and women from both sides of the political aisle\u201d on the bill and its implications for the Good Friday Agreement.<\/p>\n

\u201cIts a great opportunity for me to be clear that the threat to the Good Friday Agreement \u2026 has come from the EUs politicization of the issue,\u201d Raab told reporters, adding: \u201cOur commitment to the Good Friday Agreement and to avoid any extra infrastructure at the border between the north and the south is absolute.\u201d<\/p>\n

Top U.S. Democrat Nancy Pelosi last week<\/a> warned there was \u201cabsolutely no chance\u201d of a U.K.-U.S. trade deal if the move causes Brexit to undermine the Good Friday Agreement maintaining peace in Ireland. Raab noted during his press conference that he would meet Pelosi later Wednesday.<\/p>\n

Raab called the U.K.s action in bringing forward the domestic bill \u201cdefensive in relation to what the EU is doing,\u201d adding it was both \u201cprecautionary\u201d and \u201cproportionate.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat we cannot have is the EU seeking to erect a regulatory border down the Irish Sea between Northern Ireland and Britain,\u201d he said. Raab supported the U.K. government agreeing that the Brexit deal would create a trade border<\/a> down the Irish Sea.<\/p>\n

Pompeo in turn offered his support to the U.K. government, telling reporters that \u201cwe trust the United Kingdom.\u201d<\/p>\n
