Podcasts about consultative forum

The Government hoped that the Consultative Forum on International Security Policy would prompt a national conversation on Ireland's security and foreign policy.However, the nation was more than a little distracted by events in Montrose and the RTÉ secret pay deal scandal and the forum may have passed many people by. Not everyone; there were protests that brought attention to the forum in Dublin Castle and, even before it began, President Michael D Higgins caused controversy by his comments on the event.It was characterised in some sectors as a Government scheme to bounce Ireland into Nato, but according to Irish Times crime and security correspondent Conor Gallagher the forum was in fact a varied discussion on the international security landscape which included strong defences of Irish neutrality. He tells us the key takeaways. Presented by Bernice Harrison. Produced by Declan Conlon and John Casey. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Misin shíochánaíochta: "breathnóimis arís ar an nGlas Triarach". Tánaiste Micheál Martin said that Ireland should look again at the Triple Lock, as it is called, or the three fences that need to be thrown before soldiers from this country can be sent abroad. Dúirt an Tánaiste Micheál Martin gur chóir d'Éirinn breathnú arís ar an nGlas Triarach, mar a thugtar air, nó na trí chlaí is gá a chaitheamh sular féidir saighdiúrí as an tír seo a chur thar lear. Micheál Martin was speaking at the second session of the Consultative Forum on International Security Policy which is taking place in Galway today. Ag labhairt a bhí Micheál Martin ag an dara seisiún den Fhóram Comhairleach maidir le Polasaí Slándála Idirnáisiunta atá ar siúl i nGaillimh inniu. The first session was in Cork yesterday. Is i gCorcaigh inné a bhí an chéad seisiún. The Tánaiste indicated that the Government wished to ensure that this country would not be discouraged from participating in peacekeeping missions abroad. Thug an Tánaiste le fios gur mhian leis an Rialtas a chinntiú nach mbeadh aon laincis ar an tír seo páirt a ghlacadh i misin shíochánaíochta thar lear. That is, he said, as long as it would really be peacekeeping missions (and there would be no hidden objectives). Is é sin, arsa sé, fad is gur misin shíochánaíochta a bheadh i gceist i ndáiríre (agus nach mbeadh aon chuspóirí ceilte ann). According to the policy known as the Triple Lock, permission must be obtained from the Government, the Dáil and the United Nations before the Irish Defense Forces can be sent on duty in foreign countries. De réir an pholasaí a dtugtar an Glas Triarach air, caithfear cead a fháil ón Rialtas, ón Dáil agus ó na Náisiúin Aontaithe sular féidir Óglaigh na hÉireann a chur ar dualgas i dtíortha iasachta. The Tánaiste would like to relax this policy so that there is no need to consult more with the United Nations Security Council. Ba mhaith leis an Tánaiste an polasaí seo a mhaolú le nach gcaithfí dul i gcomhairle ní ba mhó le Comhairle Slándála na Náisiún Aontaithe. He pointed out that the five permanent members of the Security Council are forever trying to get the best of each other and that Russia, as part of this conflict, has a habit of blocking international peacekeeping missions. Thug sé le fios go mbíonn na cúig bhall bhuana den Chomhairle Slándála go síoraí ag iarraidh an ceann is fearr a fháil ar a chéile agus go bhfuil sé de nós ag an Rúis, mar chuid den tsáraíocht seo, misin shíochánaíochta idirnáisiúnta a chosc. It is not worth it for us to pretend that this art is not up and it is so, says Micheál Martin, that a resolution has not been passed in the United Nations in connection with a peacekeeping mission since 2014. Ní fiú dúinne ligean orainn féin nach bhfuil an ealaín seo ar bun agus is amhlaidh atá sé, arsa Micheál Martin, nár ritheadh rún sna Náisiúin Aontaithe i dtaca le misean síochánaíochta ó 2014. As a reinforcement of this dysfunction, according to him, he drew attention to the plight of Syria and the difficulties involved in providing humanitarian aid to the four million people in need there. Mar sholaoid ar an mífheidhmiúlacht seo, dar leis, tharraing sé aird ar anchás na Siria agus ar na deacrachtaí a bhaineann le cabhair dhaonnúil a thabhairt do na ceithre mhilliún duine atá i ngátar ansin.

The founder of Shannonwatch has branded the Consultative Forum on International Security Policy taking place this week as "very biased". The second day of the forum is underway in Galway today where protestors, including veteran anti-war campaigner Margaretta D'Arcy, have again made their presence felt. The event has been shrouded in controversy since it was announced as many view the panel of speakers as being made up almost entirely of those who are in favour of Ireland joining NATO and other military alliances. Shannonwatch founder and former UN peacekeeper Edward Horgan says it is of paramount importance that Ireland "restores" its neutrality.

Leithscéal ón Uachtarán faoi "ráiteas fánach" faoi shaineolaí. President Michael D. Tá an tUachtarán Michael D. Higgins has apologized to Professor Louise Richardson for a "careless statement" he made which was published in a newspaper yesterday. Higgins tar éis leithscéal a ghabháil leis an Ollamh Louise Richardson faoi "ráiteas míchúramach" a rinne sé a foilsíodh i nuachtán inné. In the article the President said that Ireland was "running thin" during a dangerous period, at a time when the country's foreign policy is "going downstream." San alt dúirt an tUachtarán go raibh Éirinn "ag rith ar thanaí" le linn tréimhse chontúirteach, tráth a bhfuil polasaí eachtrach na tíre "ag imeacht le sruth." He also referred to the chairman of the Consultative Forum on International Security Policy - Professor Richardson - and said that she was someone "with a very large DBE - Dame of the British Empire" and that she was "grand" but that she would have to the ability of experts to come to the Forum. Thagair sé chomh maith do chathaoirleach an Fhóram Comhairliúcháin ar an bPolasaí Slándála Idirnáisiúnta – an tOll Richardson – agus dúirt sé gur duine í "with a very large DBE - Dame of the British Empire" agus go raibh sí "grand" ach go mbeadh ar a chumas féin a theacht ar lucht saineolais le bheith ar an bhFóram. Today the President's Office says "he meant no offense by that trivial statement." Inniu deir Oifig an Uachtaráin "nach raibh aon mhasla i gceist aige leis an ráiteas fánach sin." "The President apologizes" says a statement from the Office "for any offense he inadvertently gave to Professor Richardson with a careless statement. "Gabhann an tUachtarán leithscéal" a deir ráiteas ón Oifig "faoi aon mhasla a thug sé gan chuimhneamh don Ollamh Richardson le ráiteas míchúramach. As a political scientist and sociologist himself, the President is familiar with the work of Professor Richardson. Mar eolaí polaitiúil agus socheolaí é féin tá eolas ag an Uachtarán ar shaothar an Oll Richardson. He admires, as do others, the Professor's tenacity in attracting students from disadvantaged and other non-traditional backgrounds to Oxford University, which led to her being awarded the DBE." Tá meas aige, mar atá ag daoine eile, ar threallús an Ollaimh ag mealladh mac léinn faoi mhíbhuntáiste agus ó chúlraí eile neamhthraidisiúnta chuig Ollscoil Oxford, rud ba chúis leis an ngradam DBE a bronnadh uirthi." Government sources have indicated that Prof Richardson will continue to chair the Forum. Tá sé tugtha le fios ag foinsí Rialtais go leanfaidh an tOll Richardson i mbun cathaoirleachta ar an bhFóram. In the interview the President did yesterday with the Sunday Business Post he said he was concerned that the country was turning away from "positive neutrality, our established policy." San agallamh a rinne an tUachtarán inné leis an Sunday Business Post dúirt sé go raibh imní air go raibh an tír ag iompú ón "neodracht dearfach, an polasaí seanbhunaithe atá againn." He mentioned the panels on the Forum, among which he said "the admirals, the generals, the air force and the rest" as well as "the countries that used to be neutral but are now looking for NATO membership." Luaigh sé na painéil atá ar an bhFóram, ina measc a dúirt sé "na haimiréil, na ginearáil, an t-aerfhórsa agus an chuid eile" chomh maith "leis na tíortha a bhíodh neodrach ach atá anois ag lorg ballraíochta le NATO." Cathal Berry - Independent MP and former member of the Defense Forces - has said there should be a "respectful debate" about Irish neutrality. Tá Cathal Berry - Teachta Dála Neamhspleách agus iarchomhalta sna Fórsaí Cosanta - tar éis a rá gur cheart "díospóireacht mheasúil" a bheith ann faoi neodracht na hÉireann.

The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) have given full backing to the directive by President Muhammadu Buhari that bandits bearing AK-47 should be shot on sight. The ACF said the security situation need unconventional control, saying that AK-47, being a dangerous assault rifle, should not be handled by unauthorised persons.in addition, Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom, has commended President Muhammadu Buhari over his directive to security agents to shot anyone illegally bearing AK-47 rifle.Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to the President Garba Shehu told the BBC Hausa Service in an interview aired on Wednesday that the order showed the seriousness with which the government was taking banditry, kidnapping and other acts of terror.“What can be stronger than the fact that the President has directed the operatives to shoot anyone seen with dangerous weapons like AK-47, on sight, in as much as the person is not a security operative?“Government is doing this with all seriousness. The President equally directed that the security (operatives) should go after them and kill them except they lay down their arms,” Shehu added.Ortom, speaking yesterday at the Government House Makurdi when he hosted the Chairman Governing Board, Universal Basic Education Commission (UBEC), Prof Adamu Kyuka, said: “I wish to commend Mr President for his recent order against those bearing AK-47 rifles. This I am sure will reduce the high rate of criminality, banditry and militia herdsmen attacks on our farming communities.“I don't only criticise, I also commend where necessary. And I want to say it is a shame on those psychopaths who were bashing me for writing to Mr President because he has finally heeded my advice.”Its National Publicity Secretary Emmanuel Yawe said: “Though only lawyers can interpret the legality of the President's order, that the President ordered people to be shot without trial is a legal issue.“But we agree that there is a need for the extreme measure to curb the spread of arms like AK-47.“Some governors are even arguing that people should be allowed to carry AK-47 and that is not right. They want the country to dissolve into anarchy. It is not right for private individuals to carry AK-47, which is known all over the world as a very dangerous assault rifle.“Nigeria is not at war, so why should people carry AK47 freely? Even Dane guns, you need a licence to own it. In Nigeria, people just carry AK-47 freely and they kill people and nothing happens to them.“The ACF welcomes the President's order.”Also, the federal government of Nigeria has declared Zamfara a no-fly zone following intelligence that arms were being transported to the bandits with private jets.
