Post-European Council Meeting: Statements Dail Éireann — 2024-07-10 ============================================================ Thomas Pringle (IND), Donegal Let me ask the question and then the Minister of State can have her say. The Minister of State said the European Union has perhaps moved a couple of baby steps towards the Irish position. She said we all focused on what Ursula von der Leyen said and did a year ago regarding Israel. That is not the case. Deputy Harkin mentioned what was said in the European Council summary today. At what point will Ireland make a stand and go independently? I am not finished my question yet. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
