So they are not independent then. not even their staunchest ally (USA) recognizes their Independence, so I don’t see where is the controversy with Irish PM’s statement.

Was there a controversy?

Why is it even being posted here? Top comment seems to think it’s controversial. Lemmy users are like redditors in political awareness.

Well, yes. Redditors and Lemmy users are the same people.

I posted it in /c/ireland 24 hours earlier and no controversy

I didn’t hear complaints in the domestic press.

Exactly? It’s completely uninteresting.
