It appears as though the government have no idea about the homeless problem in Ireland along with the out-of-control housing crisis that faces everyone from the age of 21 upwards.
Micheal Martin said that Ireland is giving €20 million towards international agencies that will be on the ground in the Ukraine and has vowed “to do more”.
Speaking in the Dail, Martin said: “Russia will have to live with the shame of what they have done in Ukraine for generations. Those responsible will be held to account.
“We are with Ukraine and I am certain that, in the end, Ukraine will prevail.
Martin says that Ireland has committed €20m in direct humanitarian funding, delivered through proven international agencies active on the ground. He said that we will do more too.
“We are a militarily neutral country. However, we are not politically neutral in the face of war crimes. Quite the opposite.
“Our position is informed by the principles that drive our foreign policy – support for international human rights, for humanitarian law and for a rules-based international order. We are not neutral when Russia disregards all of these principles. We are with Ukraine.
“As well as financial support, through a collaborative effort we are in the process of delivering medical equipment including ambulances, ultrasound machines, mobile x-ray machines, ventilators and incubators,” he said.
“Ireland has contributed our full share to the European Peace Facility’s €1bn assist package to Ukraine,” he added.
