Joint Oireachtas Committee on Foreign Affairs and Trade

General Scheme of Israeli Settlements in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (Prohibition of Importation of Goods) Bill 2025: Discussion (Resumed)

2:00 am

Ms Fatin Al Tamimi:

I ask for Ireland to take the lead. When Ireland starts everybody will follow because it is a legal obligation. It is a moral obligation for all countries, including Ireland. I am speaking about Ireland because I am an Irish-Palestinian living here and I am here with the committee to talk about this. It is important for Ireland to start and then everybody will follow because the whole world is watching and waiting for Ireland.
