Richard Boyd Barrett TD said:

“It has been reported that Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff will be in Dublin today at the same time as the gathering of European political leaders. 

“Kushner and Witkoff are both members of the so-called Board of Peace for Gaza. They are colonial viceroys, appointed without anything resembling a democratic process and without any consultation with the people of Gaza. They are there to carve up Gaza to serve Israeli and US interests.

“They will be here tomorrow alongside the NATO gang and European leaders. I don't think there have been so many war mongers and genocide enablers in Ireland at the same time as there will be tomorrow. 

“It is shameful that we are hosting this grotesque festival of war mongers and genocide enablers. The whole blood-soaked charade goes against this country’s proud tradition of neutrality and anti-imperialism. We should have nothing to do with these people.

“The only appropriate response now is for everyone who is opposed to militarisation and war, cares about our protecting our neutrality, and is horrified by US and EU’s complicity in Israel’s genocide in Gaza to join the protest at the Spire at 5pm tomorrow and march towards the Convention Centre and the National Gallery where the political leaders are gathering.”
