Mr Varadkar, who began his second term as prime minister in mid-December, says unionists have told him they feel the protocol diminishes their place in the union. The Irish prime minister said: 'I do understand that and I do get that.'
The arrangement, designed to prevent a hard border on the island of Ireland, is opposed by all the unionist parties in Northern Ireland, who see it as threatening the union with Great Britain.
"A lot of people who are unionists feel that the protocol has separated them from Great Britain," Mr Varadkar acknowledged. The comments will be welcomed in London, as diplomatic efforts to secure a deal with the EU on the protocol resume in 2023.
