TL;DR Summary

President Biden celebrated St. Patrick's Day with Ireland's Prime Minister, Leo Varadkar, and confirmed his visit to Ireland next month to mark the 25th anniversary of the Good Friday Agreement. Biden, who is of Irish descent, is the second Irish Catholic to occupy the White House after John F. Kennedy. He has been an ardent supporter of the efforts to secure peace in Northern Ireland. The Good Friday Agreement created the framework for that peace and will serve as the reason for Biden's first visit to Ireland as president in April.
