Trócaire backs Martin’s stance on Gaza

THURSDAY, February 25, was the first time in a year that an EU foreign minister entered the besieged Gaza strip.

By visiting Gaza, Foreign Minister Micheál Martin showed his genuine commitment to bear witness to the devastation and despair sowed by Israel in that enclave.

This is a rare act of courage by an Irish or European politician on this issue. For this Trócaire congratulates him.
