President Clinton has arrived in the Irish capital Dublin to complete
his historic peace mission.

The President and First Lady Hillary Clinton kicked off their tour of the Irish Republic with a visit to the official residence of Irish president Mary Robinson.


SUGGESTED VOICE-OVER:

The U-S presidential couple was greeted by typical Irish weather as they touched down at Dublin's international airport.

Despite the damp, a formidable welcoming party was in place to greet Mr and Mrs Clinton for the last leg of their Irish peace tour.

Irish president Mary Robinson and her husband Nicholas headed the welcoming party, which included Prime Minister John Bruton and Foreign Minister Dick Spring with their wives.

The elaborate welcoming ceremony with full pageantry is a sign of the significance of the U-S presidential visit to Ireland.

Young and old alike greeted their American guests of honour with enthusiasm.

The presidential couple have an action-packed 24-hour visit ahead of them.

A 40-vehicle cavalcade took the Clintons to their first port of call - the official Irish presidential residence at Phoenix Park.

A string of further engagements will follow, including discussions with Prime Minister Bruton on the Northern Ireland peace process, and an address at a public rally at College Green.
