In Kyiv today, I saw the extent of Russian brutality first-hand when I visited a site of the recent rocket attacks. Humbled by the chance to offer my condolences to President Zelensky on behalf of the Irish people and laid a wreath in memory of the victims. Slava Ukraini 🇺🇦🇮🇪🇪🇺

I am appalled by the brutal Russian missile attack on Sumy city. People killed & injured going about their daily lives, some on their way to church for Palm Sunday. I utterly condemn this latest cowardly attack by Russia. These are not the actions of a country seeking peace

Shocking reports of another brutal Russian missile attack, this time targeting the centre of Sumy city, as many local residents go to church on Palm Sunday. At least 20 reported killed. Civilians continue to be targeted by Russia, even while ceasefire talks are underway.

Our deepest condolences to the families of the many civilian casualties in Kryvyi Rih, following a Russian missile attack last night. Latest reports suggest that at least 18 were killed, including 9 children, and 68 injured. Residential areas should never be a target.

Ireland strongly condemns the latest series of Russian attacks on Ukraine, including on Kharkiv, Dnipro, Sumy and critical civilian infrastructure including energy infrastructure, across Ukraine. These are not the actions of a country serious about peace.

Ireland strongly condemns the recent intermediate-range ballistic missile attack conducted by Russia. This marks yet another reckless escalatory step in its aggression against Ukraine and is further evidence that Putin’s Russia has no interest in peace.

Good to meet @JustinTrudeau today - the friendship and bond between our two countries is strong. Honoured to work with Canada on our collective effort to help return displaced and abducted children from Ukraine to their families. The world must do all it can to support this work.
