What the papers say: Tuesday's front pages
The papers are led by reaction to the "breakthrough" agreement between the European Union and British government over Northern Ireland trade.
The Irish Times writes that British prime minister Rishi Sunak hopes for “a new chapter in the relationship” between his country and the European Union.
The Irish Independent and The Irish News focus on the concerns of unionists, with the DUP playing a "waiting game" as it reviews the new Windsor Framework.
"Make or Brake" says the Belfast Telegraph, as a new part of the agreement will give Stormont politicians "a say on EU rules".
The Irish Daily Mail hails a "new chapter for the North" but warns it could be months before the DUP backs the deal.
In other news, the Irish Examiner reports that the Garda security service will analyse information they receive from Australian intelligence about Irish citizen Marina Sologub, who has been declared a potential security threat.
The Irish Daily Mirror focuses on Electric Ireland reducing energy bills for businesses but making no changes for households.
The Irish Daily Star speaks to a former senior garda who thinks the Kinahan Cartel is "doomed".
The British papers are also led by reaction to Rishi Sunak striking an agreement with the EU.
The Times and i hail the development as a “Brexit breakthrough”, which grants Britain the power to veto EU laws.
