Summary
Ukraine’s EU membership bid can proceed even amid war, according to Ireland’s Taoiseach Micheál Martin, who emphasized the merit-based process and the ultimate goal of peace. As Ireland assumes the EU Council presidency, it will also push for a unified age verification system to shield children online, with proposals expected soon and Ireland set to lead the charge. Amid rising online harms, the focus includes tackling algorithms that expose youth to dangerous content. Martin also voiced European frustration over Israel’s restrictions on Gaza access, calling for urgent humanitarian and media access. Ireland’s six-month term promises high-stakes diplomacy on Ukraine, digital safety, and global humanitarian needs.
