Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

Ireland has taken action in respect of the entire situation in the Middle East, not least the recognition of the State of Palestine, with Spain. We have called for a review of the association agreement, with Spain. We led the way in terms of our participation in the international courts, supported the ICJ advisory opinion in calling for it to be deliberated in the first instance, and also in terms of voting for the resolution after the ICJ advisory opinion, and much more.
What I find striking is that the Deputy never put down a question asking whether anybody walked out when foreign minister Lavrov spoke on behalf of Russia at the UN.
