We strongly condemn today’s attack on the Barakah nuclear power plant in the UAE, which is a blatant violation of international law and a threat to security and stability in the region.
The protection of nuclear facilities everywhere is non negotiable.
🇮🇪 & 🇦🇪 have entered a new chapter. Minister Al Marri has been instrumental in writing it:
Inaugural Joint Economic Commission ✅
Investopia welcomed to Dublin ✅
Bilateral trade now exceeding €9.5bn ✅
It was a pleasure meeting him today to say Shukran and to bid farewell.
Thank you so much, dear Dr Majed. It has been an honour to be Ireland’s Ambassador to Qatar and I am certain those ties of friendship and cooperation will continue to strengthen and endure.

Today, at the meeting of the EU Foreign Affairs Council, I will be calling for concrete EU measures against settler violence in the West Bank, including action to ban trade with illegal settlements and the suspension of the trade elements of the EU-Israel Association Agreement.🇪🇺
I was delighted today to have the opportunity to say thank you directly to Sir Tim Clark, President of @emirates on their excellent cooperation with 🇮🇪 during the recent crisis. We are keen to continue to grow our partnership with this global leader in aviation. Mile buíochas!

Ireland condemns the missile and drone attacks by Iran on the UAE.
We urge all parties to preserve the ceasefire in the Gulf. Freedom of navigation must be resumed and international law upheld.
Dialogue and diplomacy are needed to build lasting peace and regional security.

Abdullah bin Zayed Holds Phone Calls with Foreign Ministers to Discuss Regional Developments
H.H. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, held phone calls with a number of foreign ministers to discuss the latest regional developments following Iran’s unprovoked and terrorist missile attacks targeting the UAE and several countries in the region and beyond.
H.H. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan held discussions with Helen Mcentee, Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade, and Minister for Defence of Ireland; Paulo Rangel, Minister of State and Foreign Affairs of Portugal; and Dr. Arnoldo André Tinoco, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Worship of Costa Rica.
H.H. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed expressed his appreciation to the ministers for their countries’ solidarity with the UAE, affirming that all residents and visitors in the country are safe.
H.H. Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan and the ministers also reviewed the latest regional developments following the announcement by U.S. President Donald Trump of a two-week ceasefire between the United States and Iran.
The calls also underscored the importance of concerted international efforts to achieve sustainable peace and promote security and stability in the region.

I received a phone call from Ireland’s Minister for Foreign Affairs, Helen McEntee, during which she affirmed her country’s determination to mobilize all its efforts within the European Union to put an end to the ongoing Israeli escalation on Lebanese territory. She also expressed her strong condemnation of the harm inflicted on innocent civilians as a result of these attacks.
For my part, I thanked her for Ireland’s steadfast and continuous support for Lebanon, and commended the significant sacrifices made by the Irish contingent within United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon, which continues to serve the local population and help preserve stability in the South.
Thank you to the wonderful @FikerInstitute for hosting HE @NouraAlKaabi today for a calm and confident analysis of the current situation, where UAE citizens and residents alike are being kept safe thanks to a resilient and strong 🇦🇪 defence and astute leadership.
