Irish people 'fully behind' Ukraine, Taoiseach tells Zelensky
Taoiseach Micheál Martin has spoken to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky and told him that the Irish people stand fully behind his country.
He said Mr Zelensky thanked Ireland for its continued humanitarian aid, shelter, global support and sanctions against Russia.
More than 7,000 people fleeing the war have now arrived in Ireland from Ukraine.
Speaking to reporters in Washington DC, Mr Martin said there would be significant costs arising from the war in Ukraine and that additional expenditure to support people arriving in Ireland should be targeted.
