Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

I said every context.
Deputy Paul Murphy referred to the European Union. At the last European Council meeting, it decided to establish a fund to restore and reconstruct Ukraine in the aftermath of the war and to help with its current budgeting. Issues with debt will have to be worked out in the aftermath of the war. In the meantime, the focus is on trying to defend the people from Ukraine from a humanitarian perspective. Many members of the European Union are sending lethal weapons to help the Ukrainians to defend themselves. We sent non-lethal equipment to help Ukrainians in the war effort.
