Emma Little-Pengelly spoke to Sophy Ridge about her visit to the White House.
Little-Pengelly is a member of the Democratic Unionist Party (DUP), and deputy first minister of Northern Ireland.
She’s on equal footing with First Minister Michelle O’Neill of Sinn Fein, who has boycotted the trip to see Donald Trump over the president’s stance on the Israel-Gaza conflict.
Speaking to Sophy, Little-Pengelly says she wants to engage with the office of the president as a representative for her nation.
