Mr Harris emphasized that the decision to close the embassy is not linked to Israel’s accusations of antisemitism against Ireland, stating, 'Our actions cannot be conflated with Israel's claims of antisemitism, as we simply aim to uphold international law.' He underscored the importance of Ireland’s stance on safeguarding human rights and addressing illegal settlements.
Taoiseach Simon Harris reiterated the commitment to the Occupied Territories Bill, specifying, 'This legislation aims to impose a ban on imports from illegal settlements in the West Bank, reflecting our support for Palestinian territories recognized by the international community.' This move symbolizes Ireland's dedication to international law and ethical governance.
