Simon Coveney (FG), Cork South-Central

On the issue of President von der Leyen, I think the Taoiseach has outlined a very different perspective from Ireland than, perhaps, the perspective that she has outlined at different times. However, I think President von der Leyen has done an extraordinary job if you look at the role she has played in the round over the last number of years. She has, I think, given extraordinary leadership in the Commission. I think we make a different argument in terms of emphasis than she has perhaps done with regard to the Israel-Gaza conflict.
