Johnson hailed the US President as "a big breath of fresh air" because he wanted to work with London on a huge range of issues including climate change and COVID to security.

Johnson said, "It’s a big breath of fresh air. It’s new, it’s interesting and we’re working very hard together. We went on for about an hour and 20 or so. It was a long, long, good session. We covered a huge range of subjects". 

Johnson played out differences with Washington on the impact of Brexit on the peace in Northern Ireland as he said that the US, UK, and European Union had "complete harmony" on finding solutions to uphold the 1998 peace deal. "There’s complete harmony on the need to keep going, find solutions, and make sure we uphold the Belfast Good Friday Agreement", Johnson added.
