Ireland to give €125m to Ukraine as Zelensky visits Dublin

· 1 min read

BBC:

The Irish government is expected to approve an extra €125m (£110m) in supports for Ukraine in a Cabinet meeting on Tuesday morning.

It comes after the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky arrived in Dublin in the Republic of Ireland for an official one-day visit.

He and the first lady of Ukraine, Olena Zelenska, were greeted on Dublin Airport’s runway by Taoiseach (Irish Prime Minister) Micheál Martin and Minister of State at the Department of Foreign Affairs Thomas Byrne.

Martin said he was “honoured” to welcome the president and first lady.

Irish ministers are set to sign off on an extra €100m (£88m) in funding for non-lethal military support for Ukraine and a further €25m (£22m) for the country’s urgent energy needs.

The proposals will be brought to the meeting, which is taking place in Dublin, by Foreign Affairs and Trade Minister Helen McEntee.

McEntee will also propose Ireland’s participation in an International Claims Commission for Ukraine.

The commission will be responsible for determining claims for damage, loss or injury caused by Russian internationally wrongful acts committed by the Russian federations against Ukraine, an Irish government source said.
