Some 45 million Americans claim Irish heritage, 10 times more than the population in Ireland. The two countries have been politically aligned for decades, so why is their relationship so enduring? On the Sky News Daily Sky’s senior Ireland correspondent David Blevins with political journalist Aoife Moore are in Belfast to explore what’s in it for both countries.
