Speaking to reporters afterwards, Mr Martin was asked about President Trump’s threatened 25% tariffs on certain EU goods and how he would approach the issue when he meets the US leader.
Ireland will take a “step-by-step” approach in response to any trade tariffs imposed on the EU by US President Donald Trump, the Taoiseach has said.
Micheal Martin said the detail of individual moves made by the White House would be key, but he reiterated his view that tariffs posed an economic risk that could prompt a spike in inflation.
Mr Zelensky stopped off in Ireland en-route to the United States for his own meeting with Mr Trump on Friday.
Mr Martin stressed that Ireland had a “wonderful relationship” with the United States.
