Ireland will invest 12 million euros ($12.9 million) to help replenish depleted EU arms stocks, the Irish Times reported on June 11, citing the country's defense department.

Polling has opened in Ireland for the European Parliament elections, with a record number of far-right candidates on the ballot. Forteen MEPs will be elected to the EU Parliament, following election campaigning that has been dominated by controversy over rising numbers of asylum seekers and a severe shortage of affordable housing. The ruling coalition of Fianna Fáil, Fine Gael and the Green Party has sought to ward off support for far-right parties by reducing welfare payments some Ukrainian refugees and removing migrant encampments across the country. Almost two-thirds of voters want tougher ...

The decision by Ireland, Spain and Norway to recognise Palestine as a state outraged Israel but also put pressure on other European allies to take the same course. Taoiseach (prime minister) Simon Harris explained his government's thinking in this historic step. "Quite frankly, because we must keep the hope, the dream and the destination of a two- state solution alive at a time when, sadly, others are working to undermine that. We believe, and Ireland has believed for many, many years, that the way you bring peace and stability to the Middle East is the recognition of a two-state solution. "No...

Just after dawn on the 1 May, the police moved in to dismantle the encampment. According to the government, almost 300 unaccompanied men were moved from Mount Street to Citywest and Crooksling - also in County ...

Immigration tops the political agenda for the first time in Ireland's history. At least four new Irish political parties, critical of the federal government's immigration policy, are contesting the forthcoming European elections in June. The parties say they are not opposed to immigration but feel the Irish government has been too liberal on the issue. Ireland has a population of five million with nearly one million entering the country since the mid-1990s. The new crop of political parties is responding to numerous events that have plagued the city's capital. In May, the government moved to d...

Madrid (AFP) - Spain, Ireland and Norway formally recognised a Palestinian state on Tuesday in a coordinated decision slammed by Israel as a "reward" for Hamas, more than seven months into the devastating Gaza war. The three European countries believe their initiative has strong symbolic impact that could encourage others to follow suit. After Ireland's government formally approved the measure, Prime Minister Simon Harris said the aim was to keep Middle East peace hopes alive. "We had wanted to recognise Palestine at the end of a peace process. However, we have made this move alongside Spai...
