Joint Oireachtas Committee on European Union Affairs

Experience of Estonia and Latvia in the EU: Discussion with Estonian and Latvian Ambassadors

3:05 pm

H. E. Mr. Mait Martinson:

It gets very technical but I am glad we are learning from the best. The Irish diaspora is well known for offering support to Ireland from the other side of the Atlantic. We have followed Ireland's example so that we have a half-Estonian Member of the Oireachtas, Deputy Jim Daly, who is married to an Estonian woman and has three sons. That is an example of integration going extremely well.
