## Resource

Belfast’s recent knife attack has reignited debate over the UK-Ireland Common Travel Area, with UK politicians warning it may be exploited as an immigration loophole. Irish officials firmly defend the 100-year-old agreement, stressing it’s vital for citizens and that abuses can be countered through stronger intelligence sharing. Both leaders reaffirmed their commitment, with plans for high-level talks to address concerns—focusing not on the border, but on asylum processing. The Taoiseach insists there’s no evidence of disproportionate impact and that undermining the CTA is unacceptable. The goal: preserve the agreement through enhanced cooperation, not division.
