Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - States Recognised by Ireland.

5.

Mr. O'Leary

asked the Minister for External Affairs what states are at present recognised by this country; and what criteria are involved in considering the grant of recognition.

As the answer to the first part of the question consists of a long list of States, I propose, with your permission, a Cheann Comhairle, to have it included in the Official Report.

The answer to the second part of the question is that in considering recognition of States the Government act in accordance with the generally recognised principles of international law and having regard to the circumstances in each case.

Following is the statement:—
