Anglo-Irish relations
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Anglo-Irish relations is a term traditionally used to describe the diplomatic and governmental relationships between the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the various Irish states that have existed since 1922, namely the Irish Free State (1922–1937), Éire (1937–) and the Republic of Ireland (1949–present).
The usage of the term has been reflected in some legal treaties signed by both states, namely the
- Anglo-Irish Treaty (1922)
- Anglo-Irish Agreement (1985).
Meetings of the British Prime Minister and the Irish Taoiseach are generally referred to as Anglo-Irish Summits.
Since the 1990s the synonym British-Irish relations has also begun to be used.
