Palestine mission to Ireland welcomes parliament s motion on Israel s de facto annexation

Palestine mission to Ireland welcomes parliament’s motion on Israel’s ‘de facto annexation’   DUBLIN, Thursday, May 27, 2021 (WAFA) - The Mission of the State of Palestine in Ireland welcomed in a statement the move by Oireachtas members - the Irish parliament - to unanimously vote in favor of the motion moved by Sinn Féin which recognized that the illegal settlement expansions constitute de facto annexation of occupied Palestinian territory.  “This landmark decision represents the first time that an EU country has broken the consensus and truthfully called out the occupation of Palestinian territory.  It was a just and ethical decision by the representatives of the people of Ireland,” said the statement.

All parties, including the two centre-right ruling parties Fianna Gael and Fianna Fail, supported the motion. An amendment to expel Israel s ambassador to Ireland and put in place immediate cultural, political and economic sanctions against Israel failed to get enough votes. Sinn Fein leader Mary Lou MacDonald said the motion must mark new assertive, consistent confrontation of Israeli crimes against Palestine and added there should now be consequences for Israel, not simply condemnation.
