"I would like to congratulate Yvette Cooper on her appointment as UK Foreign Secretary.
"I look forward to working with her, not least to deliver on our ambitious plans for foreign and security policy cooperation as part of the Ireland-UK Joint Statement 2030.
"In a turbulent geo-political environment, Yvette’s extensive experience, political and diplomatic skills, and strong record of delivery will be deeply valuable.
"I also want to pay tribute to David Lammy and congratulate him and wish him the best in his new role as Deputy Prime Minister and Justice Secretary."
