Northern Ireland ‘peace babies’ reflect on Good Friday agreement’s 25th anniversary – BBC Newsnight


What can the visit of US President Joe Biden to Belfast do for peace in Northern Ireland and to help restore the government there?

Amist a huge security operation, the President arrived last night to mark the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday peace agreement.

For those born after the Agreement was signed, it was hoped their lives would be free of brutal sectarian conflict that scarred the generations before them.

Radio 1 Newsbeat’s politics reporter Jordan Kenny was born in 1998 after the agreement was signed. He has been talking to other young people like him about what it means to be a so-called ‘peace baby’ in a place still grappling with its past, and what the future of this still-divided nation could hold.
