Green Party leader Eamon Ryan has called a mock-up clip on Russian state TV showing a nuclear weapon wiping out Ireland “disturbing” and “a disgrace.”
Minister Ryan also indicated the Russian ambassador in Dublin, Yury Filatov, will be hauled in over it.
The clips were broadcast by the State-owned television channel Russia-1 and introduced by Dmitry Kiselyov, a close associate of Russian president Vladimir Putin.
