00:00 While in Belfast, Biden commemorated the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday
00:04 agreement and called for an end to a political deadlock. Well,
00:07 this Thursday,
00:08 Biden is set to address the Irish parliament and meet with the Irish president.
00:12 He's already been expressing quite a bit of Irish nostalgia.
00:15 Let's take a listen.
00:16 Well, it feels like home. I said, uh,
00:22 last time I was here, in a sense,
00:26 I know why my ancestors and many of your relatives left during the famine.
00:31 And, uh, but, uh, you know, when you're here,
00:36 you wonder why anyone would ever want to leave. I mean it.
00:39 So it's good to be back.
