I most recently spoke with my German colleague by telephone on 10 June in relation to Ireland’s decision to conclude our engagement with MINUSMA at the end of our current commitment in September.
While I currently do not have any plans to invite my German counterpart to Ireland before the end of 2022, I anticipate that there will be an opportunity to meet fellow EU Defence Ministers, including my German colleague, at the Informal Foreign Affairs Council in Defence format in Prague at the end of August and also at the November Foreign Affairs Council meeting in Defence format in Brussels.
