Post-European Council Meeting: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2025-11-19
============================================================

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (SF), Cork South-Central

Some other Deputies and I referred to the situation in Sudan. While the EU is not a party to that conflict, there are concerns regarding a significant flow of weapons from the United Arab Emirates to Sudan. It has denied that but there are credible reports that suggest this. Some of the commentary in recent days indicates there may be a change in the United Arab Emirates’ position, at least outwardly. Was this discussed, and does the Irish Government have concerns regarding the connections between the UAE and the RSF? Has this been articulated at European level?
