Ruth Coppinger (Dublin West, Solidarity)

The Minister of State asked me a question. I totally agree that workers and young people throughout the world have been the only saving grace as this horrific genocide that we are seeing livestreamed on our phones each day has occurred. Only for the protest movements that are happening, there would be no action at all. The EU has been an utter disgrace throughout this and obviously the US has been a partner in the genocide. The Government is complicit in that it did nothing. I know the Government does not like that being said, but the word "complicit" means doing nothing when you see things happening as well doing something.
