Israel closes message in Ireland: Harris names the decision regrettable

Dublin, Irland - A diplomatic earthquake shakes relationships between Israel and Ireland! Israel has announced the closure of his message in Dublin, and the reason could not be more explosive: Ireland has recognized the Palestinian statehood and supports South Africa's genocide lawsuit against Israel before the International Court of Justice (IGH) because of the devastating attacks on Gaza.

"The decision to close the message in Dublin was made due to the extreme anti-Israeli policy of the Irish government," said Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar in a sharp statement on Sunday. He added: "Ireland has exceeded every red line in its relationships with Israel. Israel will concentrate his resources on promoting bilateral relationships with countries worldwide that match our interests and values."

Ireland's reaction: a clear point of view

The Irish Taoiseach (Prime Minister) Simon Harris reacted immediately and described the decision as "extremely unfortunate". "I have a decisive impact on the claim that Ireland is anti-Israeli. Ireland is per peace, per human rights and per international law," emphasized Harris. "We want a two-state solution so that Israel and Palestine can live in peace and security. Ireland will always stand up for human rights and international law. Nothing will distract us from it."

The tensions between the two countries have increased significantly in the past few weeks. Ireland has increasingly spoken out for the Palestinians, while Israel continues to continue his attacks on Gaza, who have already asked for at least 44,976 human lives. The Palestinian thing is of great support in Ireland, often parallels are drawn to the centuries -long British crew struggle.

A new diplomatic course for Israel

The closure of the message is not only a symbolic act, but also a sign of the growing international isolation of Israel. Last week Ireland announced that South Africa's legal steps against Israel support the IGH, which further fueled the diplomatic tensions. In May Ireland was one of only three European countries that recognized the state of Palestine and supported the lawsuit for genocide in the Gaza Strip.

In response to the Irish measures, Israel has called back his ambassador from Dublin and at the same time announced plans for the opening of a new message in Moldova. A clear indication that Israel wants to reorganize its diplomatic relationships, while the tensions with Ireland are increasing.
