‹ Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Palestinian Liberation Organisation. Israel’s continued existence in a settlement
Summary
Quinn sought assurance that contact with the PLO did not weaken Ireland’s commitment to Israel’s continued existence. Lenihan said Israel’s integrity must be fundamental to any Middle East settlement.
In view of the disclosure which he has made to the House regarding the contact made by the Government with the PLO, would the Minister give the House a formal assurance that such conduct does not in any way invalidate the commitment of this State to the continued existence of the Israeli State? One of the aims of the PLO is to obliterate the State of Israel.
