Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 3 November 2015
130. Deputy Brendan Smith asked the Minister for Foreign Affairs and Trade the discussions he has had with his European counterparts; or at the European Union Foreign Affairs Council, in respect of the escalating violence in Jerusalem; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [36930/15]
View answerI refer the Deputy to my reply to Priority Question 101 today in relation to the recent upsurge in violence in the region, and to my reply to his Priority Question 103 in relation to EU discussions.
Further to those replies, the events in East Jerusalem were not discussed in detail at the Foreign Affairs Council on 12 October. However, I expect this to be a key issue in the discussion at the Council meeting on 16 November.
