European Commission Vice President Maros Sefcovic said on Thursday the bloc was fully committed to protecting peace in Northern Ireland and making the post-Brexit protocol work.

"The EU fully committed to protect peace in NI & make the Protocol work," Sefcovic tweeted on arriving in London for talks with senior British minister Michael Gove.

"Its implementation is a 2-way street," he said, adding that "constructive solution-driven" co-operation was needed.
