Post-European Council Meeting: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2022-04-06
============================================================

Cathal Crowe (FF), Clare

The war in Ukraine rightly dominated the agenda of the European Council. Many people are wearing the colours of Ukraine today and many have asked about my tie. Conveniently, it is my old Clare County Council tie. Once the yellow and blue of Clare were the colours of war and battle. They were the colours that Brian Boru wore as he went into battle.
