Irish sentiment towards the European Union is declining due to perceived inaction over the crisis in Gaza. The Taoiseach, Micheál Martin, stated that the EU's credibility has "taken a hit" due to its response to the situation. He emphasized that this inaction stands in stark contrast to the robust measures and numerous sanctions the EU imposed on Russia following its invasion of Ukraine in 2022. This inconsistency in responses has led to concerns about the EU's effectiveness in international crises.
