Simon Coveney says not visiting White House on St. Patrick's Day would be a mistake
Simon Coveney says it would be a poor decision for the Taoiseach NOT to travel to the White House on St Patrick's Day.
The Housing Minister said the opportunity should be used to make Ireland's position clear to Donald Trump.
There have been calls for Enda Kenny to cancel the trip, in the wake of President Trump's travel ban.
However Minister Simon Coveney says the St Patrick's Day visit is an opportunity for the Taoiseach.
