Ireland Calls Out Russia Over Leipzig Drone | Limerick News

Ireland’s European Affairs Minister Thomas Byrne slammed Russia’s alleged role in a drone attack near Leipzig airport, calling it “absolutely outrageous,” and stood firm against Russian diplomatic pushback. While Germany leads the charge accusing Moscow, Ireland took action by summoning the Russian ambassador — whom Moscow dismissed as echoing German claims. Byrne doubled down, expressing solidarity with Ukraine and dismissing Russian rebuttals, all while hosting EU ministers at Dublin Castle. He also outlined Ireland’s EU expansion efforts, pushing for Ukraine and Moldova’s accession talks to open, advancing Montenegro’s treaty with key safeguards, and noting Iceland’s EU exit was driven by fishing disputes — not broader discontent.
