Ireland needs to prepare for the "worst possible outcome" on Brexit, according to the Tánaiste.
Tánaiste and Minister for Foreign Affairs Simon Coveney has said that Ireland needs to prepare for the "worst possible outcome" following recent Brexit developments.
Speaking to
RTÉ on Monday evening, Coveney spoke about how a no-deal Brexit has shifted from a "remote possibility" to a "real possibility".
He also said that the Irish Government continues to work with other EU countries and the UK to find a way forward.
Coveney said: "In the absence of a British government cooperating in the way that they have committed to, to actually prevent checks on the island of Ireland, well then we need to try to come up with another plan, but it is difficult to do it."
