Talk:United States presidential visits to the United Kingdom and Ireland

Why is Ireland included here?
The UK and Ireland are separate countries; Ireland has not been part of the UK for any of the visits to what is today Ireland listed on this page. So why do they not deserve a page each? --69.191.176.33 (talk) 09:21, 13 May 2019 (UTC)


 * The United Kingdom and Ireland are not 'separate countries'; Northern Ireland, which is, obviously, part of Ireland, remains within the United Kingdom. However, the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland are entirely separate sovereign states. The Republic of Ireland covers most of Ireland.
 * For what it's worth, I don't see the United Kingdom as being a 'country'; instead, I see the United Kingdom as being a sovereign state that is made up of several different countries (England, Scotland and Wales) and one region (Northern Ireland). A 'sovereign state' and a 'country', especially nowadays, in the early twenty-first century, are not exactly the same thing. Laggan Boy (talk) 08:08, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Ireland and the UK are seperate countries. If you believe that any part of the Island of Ireland is part of the UK, then I'm confident that you also believe that Russian occupied parts of Ukraine are rightfully part of Russia. 109.78.152.185 (talk) 09:11, 11 May 2023 (UTC)
