The Irish want the border assurances before the talks about trade because they have less leverage when the talks move on. The problem is:

1) The Irish and Northern Irish do not want a border in Ireland (and Vote Leave/Brexiters said there would not be).
2) The DUP and N.Irish Unionists generally do not want a border in the Irish Sea
3) We do not want there to be no border between us and an EU nation.
