Neale Richmond: Sinn Féin and the left's utterances on Russia must be remembered

War has returned to Europe for the first time since 1945 and the reason for this lies solely with Russia

Matt Carthy congratulates his successor, Sligo native Chris McManus, who is Sinn Féin's new MEP from Midlands Northwest.

As a Fine Gael TD, it is rare for me to welcome any moves from the Sinn Féin party. 

However, its move this week to condemn Russia for invading Ukraine and pledging its support for wide ranging sanctions is a good move, one that should be applauded.
