Irish president’s wife wins Kremlin kudos for Ukraine peace letter

  1. I wonder if the Higgins’ will be happy to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the partition of Ukraine with Putin in 2024?

  2. Mrs. Higgins placing equal responsibility for the war on both states seems thoughtless at best. Ukraine is being invaded. Russian military are the ones that crossed the border and began hostilities. The Russian military are the side destroying and brutally ending the lives of civilians.
    As a note, for another part of the article above, I approve of President Higgins’ speech on the housing crisis and how the market for such an essential thing should not be dominated and abused by private companies, as it has been for years, thereby inflating the homeless population and making rent more excruciating over time.
    Mrs. Higgins sent the letter as a private individual. She didn’t emphasise her position. That should be taken into account that she isn’t trying to represent the Irish people as a whole. It still doesn’t mean it wasn’t a controversial action on her part.

  3. She’s wrong. So what if Russia will inevitably win, we need to extend this war as long as possible, not enough people have died in vain yet.

    Only 100s of billions of $ have been sent to Ukraine enriching the elites, we can do a lot better than that. Let’s send trillions! And who cares if sanctions are hurting us more than Russia and the ruble is performing incredibly well.

    All you geopolitical experts live in fantasy land if you think Ukraine will win this war. Higgins is right, this situation will only be resolved through diplomatic talks.

  4. What an ignorant opinion that she committed to paper – only highlighting the stupidity by quoting academics expressing appeasement as a valid solution. I mean, she’s old enough to know that is a terrible idea but yet she feels entitled to wave a flag as if no one else thought of this before.

    Get a grip and keep your awful ignorance to a cup of tea and a natter with the elf.

  5. Crazy to watch the deranged behaviour of media and commentators on this sub where a person calling for a ceasefire and negotiations is attacked constantly, while they cheer for more death and destruction. Lunatics.

    These same attacks were used against anyone who supported our own Peace Process in the 1990s.

    Calling for negotiations does not mean you support Russia in any way.

    The reality is that is how all wars end in lieu of an outright military victory.

  6. NO PEACE PEACE 4 PUSSIES! WAR WAR WAR!!! STUPID WOMEN DONT THEY KNOW WAR IS MANS!??? MORE WAR MORE WAR MORE WAR!!!! IM A BIG MAN I PLAY COD I WOULD WIN WAR IF THEY LET ME
