Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

The world has changed fundamentally. The UN Security Council could not even issue a statement on the invasion of Ukraine. We all know about the late Yevgeny Prigozhin and the Wagner Group. Russia is more interested now in deploying the Wagner Group to parts of the Sahel or other parts of the globe instead of any UN peacekeepers. That is the reality of where we are today. However, of course, Sinn Féin has had a history of being soft on Russia down through the years.
