Today many Ukrainians who fled war will see St. Patrick's parades across Ireland and entire world, and take their minds off the horrors that they experienced, if only for a short time. Thank you so much for your warm welcome and ongoing support! Happy

Thank you for your unwavering support in these darkest of times.
You are the luck of the Irish, heart and soul of this land. It is our privilege to get to know you better and call you our friends.

Russian fascist cavalcade in Dublin today. Russian military vehicles, empire and fascist signs galore. If you think Ireland is too far and Russia doesn't have boots on the ground, think twice.

Mick Wallace doesn't care about Ukrainians, or Syrians, or his own 🇮🇪 constituents. We all know what he cares about. 👛 He's a disgraceful genocide apologist and dictators' voice in the EU Parliament. Less than a year to the next European elections...
Thank you for your compassion!💛💙 Míle buíochas! Ireland🇮🇪, you are a perfect friend - kind, clever and funny. The one that stands by you when you need help. A friend in need is a friend indeed. We only wish you were our🇺🇦 neighbour instead of... well, you know.
🗳️ Top Kremlin mouthpieces Mick Wallace and Clare Daly lost their 🇪🇺 MEP seats. ⚖️
Could it be that maybe, just maybe, Ireland doesn't identify with imperialist aggressors?

🇮🇪 Finbar Cafferkey was killed near Bakhmut while defending Ukraine. He stood against injustices: assisted international refugees on the Greek border, fought ISIS & Russian terrorists. Our thoughts are with his family & friends.

An Irishman has been killed in eastern Ukraine. The family of Finbar Cafferkey confirmed that the Mayo native died while battling Russian forces in eastern Ukraine in recent days.
Our friends and family in Ukraine often ask us what St Patrick's Day parades are about. For us it's a culture carnival where there's a place for everyone, manifestation of creativity and unity, and great craic too! ☘️

She went to the Russia-occupied Ukraine to perform to the Russian war criminals. What could have gone wrong. 🤔 Good to see local resistance in occupied Donetsk is strong, there's no safe place for the occupiers in Ukraine.

#StPatricksDay
has another special meaning for us. OTD in 1917 Centralna Rada, a democratic parliament of the Ukrainian People's Republic, was founded. Nationality, an 🇮🇪 newspaper, called Ukrainians “the Irishmen of Russia” as both 🇮🇪 and 🇺🇦 struggled for self-determination.
Our sincere condolences to friends and family of Christy Dignam. Remarkable man, whom we will always remember as a great musician, but also a ball of fire, empathetic and kind, a guy you want to be friends with. Not so long ago Christy invited members of the Ukrainian community

@ClareDalyMEP
Ms Daly,
(1) It's Ukraine, not the Ukraine.
(2) Thanks for your condescending tone once called out by the women who fled war.
(3) You've done plenty of Russian talking points & 0 effort negotiating Russian unconditional withdrawal from Ukraine - the only just peace.
Shame on you
We call on the Minister for Education
@NormaFoleyTD1
to introduce subsidised basic geography and history classes for anyone in the Oireachtas who dodged school. Deputy Danny Healy-Ray, for one, would benefit greatly from such an initiative.
Today we're celebrating St Patrick's Day and joining parades all over Ireland. Spot the 🪽 of freedom in the streets of Dublin. 🇮🇪🇺🇦

Big thanks to
@stpatricksfest
for welcoming us to the parade.
RIP brother, our thoughts are with your family and friends. You will be commemorated as a hero, a courageous Irishman who stood for freedom. Massive loss for us all.

Irishman Rory Mason has been killed while fighting in Ukraine, his family has confirmed. The heartbroken family of the 23-year-old said he was a “private young man of drive, purpose and conviction”.
At Shannon Airport, I held an unscheduled meeting with President of the Transitional Sovereign Council of Sudan Abdel Fattah al-Burhan.
I am grateful for Sudan's consistent support of Ukraine's sovereignty and territorial integrity.

today commemorating victims of Russian aggression. Big crowd gathered despite the heavy rain. To our great delight and surprise our 🇮🇪friends led the singing of the 🇺🇦anthem. Rory Mason & Pierre Zakrzewski remembered. RIP heroes. 💔
There are 705 MEPs in total.
30 of them have been named “Kremlin’s top allies in the European Parliament”.
Ireland's share in that shame list - Mick Wallace & Clare Daly - is disproportionately large.
Let's change that on Friday!
Our sincere condolences to those who lost their loved ones in

Karin Kneissl is a disgusting excuse of a human being. When caught lying, she said "and so what do I have to do with that?"
She knows everything about Russia's genocidal crimes. She is the same as those convicted in Nuremberg who maintained someone else is responsible.
Christmas carols are a big thing in Ukraine. Ukrainian culture is a vivid display of resistance through the centuries of oppression. This Christmas season, despite the war, the carols can be heard across the country.✨

This ⬇️ is a consequence of keeping Filatov here and entertaining hate narratives. Right wing thugs are all open about the fact that they receive "donations" for their podcasts and streams. I'm sure most of you can guess who fuels them.

The same colonial thinking that denies Ukraine sovereign policy decisions, because of the "Russian sphere of influence" and "don't poke the bear". They are supporters of Russian imperialism, however they want to mask it, it's way too obvious.

Beautiful tribute, Patrick! 💔 We're so sorry to hear about Sinead's passing. May she rest in peace. Her songs are good companions, and on this sad day too.
