Ireland is not neutral when it comes to Russia’s war in Ukraine, Tanaiste Michael Martin has said.
The Fianna Fail leader said this in a speech in front of hundreds earlier today at a demonstration held in front of the GPO. It was organised by Ukrainian Action in Ireland to mark the one year anniversary of the start of the war in Ukraine.
Mr Martin said: “Ireland is a militarily neutral country but we are not politically or morally neutral in the face of violations of international law and war crimes. Quite the opposite, our position is informed by the principles that drive our foreign policy – support for human rights, for humanitarian law and for a rules-based international order, the right of all countries to choose their own path.
