Talk:Foreign relations of Ireland

message: Was the Republic of Ireland ever a member of the Non Aligned Movement?    If so, when did it leave? JAJ 22:08, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Non Aligned Movement

message: The border with Northern Ireland was accepted by the Irish Free State government in 1925.  See Boundary Commission (Ireland). The same agreement that resolved the border also absolved the Irish Free State of any responsibility for payment of the United Kingdom public debt, part of which it would normally have been expected to take responsibility for as a successor state.
Only the adoption of the Constitution of Ireland in 1937 re-opened the question, until amended in 1998/99.    But it appears that other countries never recognised this claim.   JAJ 22:17, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Legally your prob correct but i would say that in those years (1925/1937) it was a bid uneasy, particularily after 1932. Djegan 23:34, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Border with Northern Ireland 

message: In Horgan v. Ireland, the government argued that they were simply maintaining what they called "the longstanding arrangements for the overflight and landing in Ireland of US military and civilian aircraft". So I've added a  tag to this statement. Demiurge 17:18, 13 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Present government more pro-US? 

message: It says here that the Soviet Union originally blocked the membership of Eire (as the 26 county Irish nation-state was than known) from U.N. membership? Why would they have done that, it makes no sense to me. Didn't the USSR, amongst other Communist nations have sympathy for the Irish nationalist and republican cause???  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Canadianpunk77 (talk • contribs) 17:58, August 24, 2007 (UTC) 
:Good question and I don't think the citation supports the claim.  More relevantly, the Soviet Union was the only state to recognise the revolutionary Irish Republic in 1918, so it really seems unlikely that they blocked its membership.  I'll slap a citation needed on it.  In the meantime, you should regard it as dubious.  By the way, in 1945 (and today), the state was and is "Ireland" when speaking English and "Éire" when speaking Irish.  From 1922 to 1948, it was a Dominion like Canada, but since 1948 it has been a Republic (see Republic of Ireland.  So I really can't see any reason for a Soviet veto. Except perhaps that it was neutral during WW2 and (after losing 8 million citizens in that war) the Soviets might not have been feeling too friendly?  Speculation!  --Red King 23:50, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

replies: text:  Here is what the reference says on the topic: "The USSR had blocked membership applications from countries such as Ireland, Italy and Finland in counter-response to the USA’s objection to the admission of Outer Mongolia, which it believed to be little more than a Russian colony."

thread_title:  Technicalities 

message: The article says "By 2004, China (including Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau) had become Ireland’s 7th largest trading partner."  The source provided is "Speech by Mr Dermot Ahern, TD, Minister for Foreign Affairs at a business lunch co-hosted with Enterprise Ireland for His Excellency Huang Ju, Vice Premier of the People’s Republic of China, 17/11/2004 (Department of Foreign Affairs Website)", but there is no link given so that the text of the speech can be verified.  Did the Minister actually specify that his statistics were including Hong Kong, Macau and even Taiwan?  Did the Minister actually go out of his way to insult Taiwan like that?  If this information is correct, the Citation needs to include the quote that shows this is what the Minister actually said. Readin (talk) 14:39, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Cuba relations 

message: This article says that there are 20,000 Armenians living in Waterford!!! Considering that there are less than 50,000 people in Waterford City and another 57,000 in Co. Waterford (outside the city), it would mean that the population would be about 19% Armenian. I've checked the Census results for 2006 and there were between 51 and 200 Armenians living in the entire country at the time. So, unless there's been a mass exodus from Armenia to Waterford in the last four years, this claim is way off. I'm removing that figure from the page. If anyone has a valid source that can claim those 20,000 people really live there, then by all means add it in! :-) Dennisc24 (talk) 15:41, 13 August 2010 (UTC)

message: I'm wondering why were the flags removed from the tables? They are in place on pages for most other countries in the world, so why were they removed from the Ireland page? I see in the annos that it was done apparently in line with MOS:FLAGS. If this was standard procedure on Wikipedia, should it not be visible on a large percentage of pages relating to other countries already? I for one think that the flags should be put back in the table - not just for their aesthetic value, they do assist when scrolling through long lists. Dennisc24 (talk) 21:05, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
