Mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi pwysleisio'n gyson ei bod yn bwysig cadw ffin feddal rhwng Gogledd Iwerddon a Gweriniaeth Iwerddon, ac rwy'n falch o weld cytundeb ar ffordd ymlaen sy'n gwarantu mai dyma fydd canlyniad y cytundeb terfynol. Credwn mai'r canlyniad gorau a mwyaf rhesymol yw i'r DU yn gyfan barhau i gydweddu’n llawn â’r Farchnad Sengl a'r Undeb Tollau. Byddai hyn hefyd yn amddiffyn buddiannau porthladdoedd Cymru a'u perthynas fasnachol gydag Iwerddon, mater pwysig arall i Lywodraeth Cymru. Dylai ail gam y negodi ddechrau cyn gynted â phosibl ar ôl cyfarfod y Cyngor Ewropeaidd yr wythnos hon.
The Welsh Government has consistently stressed the importance of retaining a soft land border between Northern Ireland and the Irish Republic and I am pleased that a way forward has been agreed which guarantees that this will be the outcome of the final agreement.  We believe that the best and most rational outcome will be for the whole of the UK to remain fully aligned to both the Single Market and the Customs Union.  This would also protect the interests of the Welsh ports and their commercial relationship with Ireland, another key concern for the Welsh Government.  Phase 2 negotiations should get going as soon as possible after this week’s European Council.
