Terry Leyden (Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I am obliged for that information. I am also very proud that this House established the Friends of Palestine group. In no other country was the same level of support received from Members of all parties and none as in the Houses of the Oireachtas. I am very proud of the work done by President Michael D. Higgins when chairman of that group and whose courage was evidenced by his visits to Palestine and the surrounding region. I wish him well in seeking re-election as President of Ireland. The Fianna Fáil Party and I are very proud to second his nomination.
