Ireland’s international presenceIreland’s premier Leo Varadkar has of late disclosed “ambitious” plans to double the effect of the global footprint of the country.

 
The seven-year project, entitled Global Ireland, will have the endorsement of Irish arts and culture in a proposition to boost up the international presence of the country.

 
The Taoiseach and the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, Simon Coveney, were joined by many Irish Government ministers on Monday in the opening of the initiative.

 
The expansion will entail targeting the areas like diplomacy, culture, business, overseas aid, tourism and trade.

 
Under the plan, the Irish Government by now has declared new embassies in Chile, Colombia, New Zealand and Jordan, and new consulates in Vancouver and Mumbai.

 
The Government explained the plans to develop its political and enterprise agency presence across Europe, endorse Irish culture, improve its digital footprint and fortify its presence in the United States, North and West Africa and in the Middle East and Gulf region.

 
Also, it said that as Brexit turns out to be a reality, the project will assist growing export markets, inward investment and tourism.

 
Speaking at the launch event, Mr Varadkar said: “With the launch of Global Ireland 2025 we are setting out our path for global citizenship.

 
“Today we follow in the footsteps of our forebears by showing how we will engage as citizens of the world in the 21st century”.
