Taoiseach Micheál Martin is in the USA for the annual St. Patrick's Day visit
Taoiseach Micheál Martin has said he hopes that a meeting with the Jewish community in Washington will go ahead following reports it had been called off.
When asked about the status of the meeting by reporters on Thursday, Mr Martin said he “hoped” it would go ahead. “We’ve been very, very consistent in terms of condemning the horrific attack by Hamas on October 7. We called for the unconditional release of hostages from the very, very beginning, an end to the war and a surge of humanitarian aid into Gaza.“We’re open and hopefully the meetings will go ahead."
