Martin stressed that the decision on his political orientation is the democratic right of Ukraine and the Ukrainian people.

You have chosen to apply for EU membership. We know that EU enlargement has been a force for stabilization and democratization in the neighboring states of Europe. This is a strategic interest of the European Union. This is in the interest of Ukraine,” said the Prime Minister of Ireland.

By the way, the politician added that he had already talked with Zelensky on this issue and would continue to support the path Ukraine had chosen for itself.
