5. “We can’t allow the Good Friday Agreement that brought peace to Northern Ireland to become a casualty of Brexit”
"Any trade deal between the US & UK must be contingent upon respect for the Agreement and preventing the return of a hard border. Period." https://www.irishpost.com/news/northern-ireland-peace-deal-cannot-be-casualty-of-brexit-insists-joe-biden-193082">https://www.irishpost.com/news/nort...

6) In 2017 Nick Clegg recounted a conversation with Joe Biden on what the US will demand as the price of an agreement with Britain.
“He said to me very unsentimentally: ‘We are not going to sign anything that the chicken farmers of Delaware don’t like!’” https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/brexit-latest-news-chemical-chicken-hlorine-soaked-uk-us-trade-deal-nick-clegg-lib-dem-warns-donald-trump-joe-biden-a7529706.html">https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/p...

7) Nov 2019: Biden said he cared a great deal about the Irish Peace Process and would continue to put pressure on Britain to ensure there is no return to a hard border after Brexit.
He doesn& #39;t support "breaking down" what is currently in place. https://www.rte.ie/news/ireland/2019/1122/1094598-biden-gfa/">https://www.rte.ie/news/irel...

8) After Trump and Brexit, Biden calls on Trudeau to defend global & #39;rules of the road& #39;
Biden “made veiled references to the uncertainty gripping Europe and the US since Britain& #39;s decision to leave the EU and the recent presidential election in US” https://www.nationalobserver.com/2016/12/09/news/after-trump-and-brexit-biden-calls-trudeau-defend-global-rules-road">https://www.nationalobserver.com/2016/12/0...

9) Finally not Biden, but here what his president said before the 2016 #Brexit referendum, some time after the “back of the queue” comments.
The UK could take up to 10 years to negotiate trade deals with the US if it leaves the EU, Barack Obama has said. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-eu-referendum-36120808">https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-p...
