What Exactly is Irish Neutrality? | First Thought Talks | GIAF 2023

First Thought Talks 2023: Diarmaid Ferriter, Conor Gallagher, Catherine Connolly and Fintan O’Toole, in conversation with Katie Hannon, discuss Irish Neutrality
Irish neutrality has become a topic for discussion since Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. How did we become neutral? In what way are we neutral? Does neutrality need legislative or constitutional protection?
Katie Hannon of RTÉ will moderate a discussion between Diarmaid Ferriter, Professor of Modern Irish History at UCD, Conor Gallagher, Crime and Security Correspondent with The Irish Times and author of a new book on neutrality, Catherine Connolly T.D. and Fintan O’Toole author of We Don’t Know Ourselves.
First Thought Talks are presented in association with University of Galway.
