Northern Ireland’s First Minister has urged the US to bring the same critical approach to pursuing a ceasefire in the Middle East that it once brought to Northern Ireland.

Michelle O’Neill and her powersharing partner, deputy First Minister Emma LittlePengelly, are on a trade mission to Washington, where they will meet President Biden at events marking St Patrick’s Day.

The pair spoke to Sky's David Blevins in their first joint interview since assuming office six weeks ago.
