Tánaiste implores political and civic leaders to 'cherish the right to have differences'

Micheál Martin Yad Vashem, the World Holocaust Remembrance Centre, in Israel.
On a deeply moving day in the Middle East, Tánaiste Micheál Martin implored political and civic leaders to "cherish the right to have differences."
Mr Martin's three-day trip began with a tour of a Holocaust museum in Jerusalem, included a "frank exchange" of views with the Israeli prime minister amid escalating tensions in the region, and ended with the Tánaiste being grilled on how a Sinn Féin-led government would impact the politics of the Middle East.
