"... violations of peremptory norms give rise to binding obligations on the part of international organisations as well as States, as advised by the ICJ in its 2024 Advisory Opinion. That includes the EU itself." - Blinne ní Ghrálaigh KC #otb

A similar view to that expressed at the International Court of Justice in February 2024 by Ireland's Attorney General. #otb #law #politics

So should the solemn statement to the World Court have contained a rider - that Ireland only obeys the Court's rulings if the US and Israel allow? #Ireland #otb #law #realpolitik

On successive days in the IT, the Israeli line, one from a man in Cornwall, one from DC. Someone is seriously rattled. #otb

No mention eithet of the detailed AG submission on behalf of Ireland to the ICJ last year - which is wholly consistent with what DFAT witness told @rodericogorman.bsky.social@bsky.brid.gy and colleagues at the Oireachtas Committee. #otb #Ireland #InternationalLaw

Puzzling omissions. #otb #WorldCourt

This, if true, would make liars of anyone in the Government saying the opposite. I believe him. #OTB
